If it was a new box of all coins from 2015 your chances are probably pretty good...if it was a random mixed box your odds against it are astronomical. Neat finds!
Four random boxes of mixed rolls from my bank 5 months ago.
Maybe the errors in itself are not major, but the way you found them sure was major. Nice finds.
There was a guy that was writing a book on die cracks/die chips a few years ago. Not a very popular subject, and I think he ran out of steam before he published it. He would've loved this.

That is indeed a rare occurrence.... Random boxes, random rolls.... Should have bought a lottery ticket - your luck was at maximum load....
Well...buy one anyway....might still be some left...Cheers, RickO
Good point
Neat split die break. It will be really cool if you find a progression through the die break. Good luck!

Nice find.
If that die split off it would be a sensational looking cud.
That's a neat haul. I like
It is not listed/pictured at Cuds on Coins:

You should send your pics in to have it added to their listings there.
Cool!

That is way cool! I need to find one of those
Collector, occasional seller
Very cool! Wonder if they pulled the die from production shortly after these were struck.
Good eye and keen find! Just hold on to it. One may never know if it should resurface someday by someone who submits it? Cool
Love dem roll searches.

--- If it should happen I die and leave this world and you want to remember me. Please only remember my opening Sig Line.The odds would be very long against it. It's likely the coins were kept together since their issue in a jar and then dumped to be rolled.
If that's not the case, then yes, go buy a lotto. I would think the odds would be similar...which is why I don't buy them.

Very cool. Although they are from different rolls, they are probably from the same source, otherwise, yes, chances would be astronomical.

I'm guessing a bunch of them got dispersed in the same general geographic area..... and a couple of them found their way back to the same place at different times.
Pretty cool though.
Wow. These are great. I haven't seen a bi-secting die crack on such a modern coin before! And now I've seen 2!
