I am tired of not finding decent Roosies. I for 1 would like to see the United States Mint sell bags and rolls of new Roosevelt dimes.
Would anyone else like to see this happen?

In the old days you could go to just about any bank and they give you all the new
coin you wanted. Now, they refuse to even issue lawful money (like sacs) at all. Get-
ting rolls of new coin is more trouble than most banks want to go to. Not providing
these coins to collectors is supressing the modern coin market.
With the myriad ways these markets have been held down by the mint, the FED, price
guide publishers, editorial policy, banks, the ANA (et al), and the third party graders ov-
er the years it's a wonder these markets exist at all. The mint is the very last one.
It would be more advantageous to all involved parties to get the banks to distribute
coins as they are produced by the mint AND demanded by the public, but this seems
pretty unlikely.
edited to add:
And while we are on this subject.
After selling gold and silver coins to said average Joe, did they decide NOT to sell the new 24K gold coins stright to us?
No, you need to go through a dealer and pay a little mark up Joe.

Typically yes...Since no one has commented I will.
I would love to see them in rolls, as I collect many things in rolls. So count me in!
