Kind of miss roll searching

Doesn't cost you anything, and you never know what's in the next roll. Tonight with all the snow, I decided to crack a roll while doing laundry. Nothing earth-shattering but pulled this stained 2000 Wide AM cent. Put a smile on my face.
Anybody searching rolls tonight?

I don't think any of the banks here will accept rolled coins and my bank doesn't have a coin machine, so I'd be stuck with any rolls that I acquired -- unless I'm missing something obvious.

Open an account with some of those banks or take the rolled coins to your bank. Why wouldn't your bank take rolled coins?

No idea. My mechanic and family friend was getting lots of rolls and even has a machine that separates copper and zinc cents. He has 5-gallon buckets of them that he cannot get rid of. He's friends with a local bank president who let him dump $1500 in cents, but asked that he bring no more.

I used to just coinstar them for Amazon gift cards, which is no fee.
I never bothered to roll up any coins.
These rolls are interesting. Must have had them here a couple years. Found a 1995 "BIE" cent, and this strange anomaly on a 1990 cent. Look like an "I" next to LIBERTY:
Any ideas? (It's not a plating blister)

My first thought was a die clash, something like this. But wrong year different type.

my guess is die gouge. plating bubble? possible?
A dropped letter or dropped portion of a letter maybe?
A dropped letter would be struck into the coin. That anomaly looks like it is definitely above the surface/field.
Agreed. I was hoping for some dropped letter scenario, as this looks to be the same size as the letter I. However, it is raised l just like the other letters of liberty. Probably just a cool die chip. I will try and take better pictures and re-post before calling in the big guns. 😆

Good catch. Thanks.
