Bag of junk from mint

I ordered my 2001 Halves from the mint, and the P's are a wreck! What have they been doing with them for the past 3 years? Here's a few as an example:

    They look like they've spent the last three years in slot machines!

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

    That's the last time I buy bags. I'm going to stick to mint sets only from now on. I told my local dealer I'd sell my extras to him, but I'm almost too embarrased to bring them in.

    2001 must have been a bad year!

    Try ordering some quality coins from the Royal Canadian Mint. They mint some high quality coins with beautiful designs and very nice packaging. image

    And spread the word to the U.S. Mint that our Northern friends mint has them beat hands down for both quality and beauty!
