    I just moved my bags of obw 1958 cents to my secure dry storage location. I have 200 rolls of obw uncirculated 1958 cents. I bought them from Virgil Marshall the “Penny Merchant” in Nebraska over 30 years ago.

    I will start selling them soon.

    Just curious how much of a premium an obw roll goes for over the tubed uncirculated rolls.

    Hi Oreville, are your rolls P or D?
    See below from eBay:

    I see raised edges not so sure that one counts could be PMD.

    Looks different in that image the first image shows shadows on the edge.

    With the subsequent images, it does appear to be a strike-through. Cheers, RickO

    I’m not sure what the going rate is but when you figure it out let me know I’ll take three or four of them :-)

    I'll take three rolls myself!

    Some interesting looking wheats.

    1913 looks tooled around the date?

    1920 maybe used as a flathead on somebodies Model T.

    1927 Blair witch project

    1934 Looks like the DDO but too worn to tell for sure.

    1935 used as a projectile possibly.

    1950 misplaced D or just a UFO?

    Yes tooled, made from a 1943 copper cent. :#

  • CoinscratchCoinscratch Posts: 8,654 ✭✭✭✭✭

    @rec78 That would be messed up.

  • rickoricko Posts: 98,724 ✭✭✭✭✭

    That is PMD.... Of course, part of the PMD may have been due to someone attempting to make a 1943 copper cent - then gave up. Cheers, RickO

    Still a truly rare event for me...

    A silver quarter in a Loomis roll.
    Thousands of rolls a year and I'd say my honest average is still perhaps one per year.

    Thought I'd take a bit of inspiration from @joeykoins and mix it up a bit.
    Spotted the packs of 2's in my favorite teller's drawer and thought why the heck not?!
    I almost never do anything with currency except buy things lol...it'll be fun to figure out some of what I'm watching for :smiley:

    Is anyone searching 2023 P Lincoln cents for the extra V on Lincoln shoulder? Let us know if you find one. I am in CA so I do not get many Philly minted cents.

    Found 1 silver quarter in 2023.. where did they all go? usually found 3-4.. in rolls each month

  • rec78rec78 Posts: 5,734 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Last week's half dollar find - 2005-P NIFC :/ (2 boxes- $1000 face value searched)
    This week's quarter finds: 17 West Virginia 2016 DDR's, 4 Nebraska 2015 DDR's, 3 Wyoming 2007 DDR's and that's it!!
    ( 2 boxes- $1000 face value searched)
    My worst ever 2 weeks. No silver, No "W" mint quarters- only 1 NIFC half dollar? This gives me hope for next week. Quarters to come (from federal reserve - bank wrapped). The quarters for this week were customer wrapped and a few rolls had nickels in place of one quarter.
    Skunk city. :|

  • rec78rec78 Posts: 5,734 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Negative find report.
    Well, it finally happened. I am always leary of customer wrapped rolls being short. I got 100 rolls from my local bank. 9 of them had only 38 quarters in them. So this was an intentional shortage by someone. If you find one or perhaps 2 rolls that or short, it could be just a mistake. When you find 9 of them, it is something that was intentionally done to get free money. Not, only that, I usually do not find any collectable coins in them. No silver, No "W" mints, no nothing, no fun.
    I am finished with customer wrapped quarter rolls. These are just a waste of time for me. Some of the rolls had a nickel in place of a quarter. Sometimes even bank wrapped quarter rolls have a nickel in them also but not many. Only once ever, have I found a quarter roll with 41 quarters in it. Usually the mistakes are rolls with less in not more. I will still take other denominations in customer wrapped rolls but no more customer wrapped quarters for me.

    Yeah, that happened to me several times but not as bad as you experienced.
    I would most definitely complain to the bank where you've received those!
    Yep, intentional.
    I too, grow leary when the bank tries to pawn these off to me. I normally reject the offer. But there is still that exciting chance that the rolls can be filled with goodies!
    Several times, the court was in my favor.
    Welcome to the game of "CRHunting"!
    I wouldn't entirely give up on it.
    Always go with your gut!
    Good Luck, my friend.

    I am only giving up on customer wrapped quarters. Everything else is still in play.
    I have been coin roll hunting since 1958.
    I did go to my main coin teller and let her know what had happened. She wanted to re-imburse me for the $4.50. I realize the possibility before I go into the bank that this may happen. I only told her of the situation because she may have more short rolls in the vaults. I did not expect or want re-imbursement because I do not want to tarnish my relationship with this bank in any way because they go out of their way to get me coins. I will just accept this loss as a cost of coin roll hunting. Maybe they can catch the culprit.

    About to start in on the Box of halves and box of quarters and bag of halves and quarters... but also came home really late last night with 10 more rolls of halves from a different vendor than my usual Loomis rolls.
    Got them at a casino last night.
    Played a poker tournament, won some money...the lady in the cage knows me so I asked if I could get a couple rolls of halves with my payout, she said "just 2 rolls?"
    I said "how about 4 then?"
    She said "I can give you 10 if you want..."
    :smiley:

    She said "Is this real? It jammed up our coin counting machine." And then just gave it to me :smiley:
