    Went through my bag and roll. Total: 2 privies, not very good results for 125 coins.
    0 in the roll marked 8-14 12:46:28
    2 in the bag marked 8-4 10:32:51

    Went through 100 coins before finding any. Glad to have two, but probably could have bought them for less than what I paid in the aftermarket for the bag and roll. Had fun, though!

    I hear 'ya !.... I had 2 privy coins in two rolls and bags

    No more or less than you.

    Sorry you don't like being called out for what you said. Next time, maybe own it instead of denying it.

    I hate to be the one to break it to people, but the times on those boxes mean as much as First Strike does on a TPG slab. All it designates is the date and time the roll or bag was sealed in the box. NOT when the coins were rolled or bagged.

    Everyone is grasping at straws, looking for something that just isn't there. The only distinction MIGHT be, if there is a large gap in dates, and if that gap signifies a break between when the initial tranche was packaged and when the back ordered tranche was. And even then, if, and only if, privies were included in the earlier tranche and not the later one.

    Other than this, dates and times mean absolutely nothing. As evidenced by wide variations in hit rates from one box to another, with no pattern of dates and times with respect to rich packages or barren ones.

    I think your comments are obvious... given that people have reported dates and times from the boxes and the results. Had it not been from these reports, we would not know this information to be completely true. I appreciate the reports and the date/times. Because of this, we know that not all July dated boxes contain a privy, we know that many early August boxes don't contain a privy. We also know that some boxes in this date range contain multiple privies. We know more because we are sharing information. Soon enough, we will have members reporting on boxes with dates of late August and early September. We will then learn more information about the consistent distribution of privies over time. Information that would not be readily available if we were not sharing. It gives us something to do and talk about while waiting in anticipation for our rolls and bags to arrive. The reports of those being skunked, especially those with early dates, is also a sobering reminder that nothing is a given here. We know from this shared information that a box containing several privies and a box containing zero privies can both have virtually the same time stamp. So I am not exactly sure why you are against sharing this information or why you have negative views of people being hopeful and speculating based on this information. It's just information, do with it as you please, or ignore it altogether. No need to harp on someone getting excited about potential.

    Yes.

    TLDR: some boxes have more privies than expected, others have less, and still others have none. As one would expect with a random distribution, and a population of 200K boxes.

    At this point, the reports add nothing, and are just random data points. The only thing that will be interesting now is whether the back ordered boxes are close in time to those already delivered, which would tell us whether the delay was due to packaging issues, or simply delivery to the fulfillment center. And then, whether or not they have privies. Of course, we are going to continue to get a blow by blow of every box that is opened, regardless of date and time.

    Not after backing out what you could get by selling the other 123 coins if you don't want to keep them. Even if you only get $1 each, and you might be able to get more.

    While 3.57 was your expected value, anything more than nothing is better than the alternative. And, at current prices, anything at all puts you ahead of the game. Which is why they sold out so quickly.

    Are the 3 yellow 'cents' on an item indicative of anything, like there being stock available, just I'm unable to add it, as someone else is already? I have gotten them from time to time. Last night and today on the Trump dollars, but not for other items. Just curious if there is any meaning to them.

    All I can say to that is that you very well might not be taking either threat seriously enough, although I am not predicting either outcome. Because, at least with respect to AI, people in a position to know a lot than you about it seem to be a lot more concerned than you seem to be.

    And that, plenty of people ARE actually concerned about privy distribution. Hence, the breathless posts reporting results that include dates and times, rather than just results.

    I don't think so -- it's just what they show while loading the selected product from the pulldown options (example, Rolls, Bags, etc...). Try pulling up the Half Dollars with 9/11 Privy -- same thing flashes when selecting between Bag vs. Roll

    4 privy coins found in two rolls. Three in the box on right and one from box on left.

    I only get it for a quick second with the half dollars and other items. It never clears when I've tried pulling up the dollars.

    I opened up 24 bags and 6 rolls live on YouTube today.

    The 6 rolls I opened had no July 4th privy coins. The 24 bags had 115 total. Several bags had zero, a few were better, the best two had 13 and 15 privy coins.

    :+1:

    Oh please, that I could get just a few from my rolls and bags - if I ever get them. Pick up the rolls today, they tried to deliver Saturday, but it is signature required. The bags still processing.

    Do people return bags? If so, are the bags of coins dumped into a counter to ensure that 100 dollars are there(?) Does the Mint re-sew the bags?

    I think most of the 250k privy dollars will be found and saved in unc. While many of the quarters with privy will be in worn condition.

    If they do take returned open bags let us know. I am guessing they would not. I have a couple opened rolls and now wondering if they would take those in return also..

    My first roll last week was a strike out.

    Three rolls were picked up from the post office today. The first two had nice coins but no privies.


    The third roll coughed up two privies, and fairly nice ones.


    Two bags on the way and two still on backorder.

    Got 2 bags and 2 rolls. Total of 1 privy.
