  Geez, even the 2x2 flip isn't sealed. The coin could have easily slipped out of that packaging.
  
  

  I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.
  
  
  
  The name is LEE!

  After the half dollar roll incident....I have sort of a trust issue with things I see here...
  
  You are making this up. You must be. That is just not possible. Funny as hell, but impossible. Please say you rigged the photo. Please?

  You need to meet a minimum package thickness requirement to insure the package. Maybe it has something to do with that?
  
  -I've received my fair share of lowsy packaging. Of course--I've encountered the "loose in a paper towel" thing a few times. One guy put a single coin in a Whitman tube and stuffed the rest of the space with rice. That was weird.

  Just out of curiosity, was there something on the other side, or just this one shown in the pic?

  I hate when their loose and not in flips or 2x2's. Makes me cringe when I run my hand up in an envelope and hearing a "tink" as a loose coin bangs into my wedding ring.

  Be thankful he put it in a flip before taping it to the scotchbrite pad!

  yes, that is one of the oddest I've seen.
  
  I truly hate it too, when I get a pckg. and it's either clinking or you can 'feel' the coin through the envelope.
  Is the general public truly that dumb?

  Are you sure that's what was rolling down your legs? I'm sitting here laughing so hard I almost... well ... I did hold it but it was close!
  
  Dang this is all so funny and strange!
  
  Lee, was that Ike in a flip? I hope that wasn't tape on the coin itself.
  
  Between a brillo pad, the tape, the rice, the garbage... what the heck are people THINKING?? Or ARE they?
