You might find some goodies in that loose bag, did they say it was what a customer brought in or if they just cracked open too many rolls?

Good luck!!

The information that i have got from here is great ...everyone is real helpful with everything ....there is a lot to learn .... as for the bag of pennies they did not say where they came from but the rolls where done by hand .....so i think someone brought them in ...
