Went to a collectors buddies house today and he asked" you like cents" I replied that depends. He heaves a box out and ask what I would give for these. First roll labled 1933-D G-VF, thought wow, the rest were mostly labled teens and 20's with some labled 31-D 32-D 33-D, 34 and so on until about the late 30's a few rolls of 40's. Didn't know what to offer so he counted the rolls 129, how about 3 bucks a roll I "freaking" hate pennies. I said sold. He went out to a small town in Texas and bought the guys entire collection, currency and coins. I opened 1 roll of teens and most were 1909's many teens MM. Same with 20's mostly MM in 1 roll several 23-S in VF 22-d, 24-S and 26-D in 1 roll. What do you think the odds of finding a nice score not even including die varieties.
P.S. I am not even gonna show the box of BU mercury rolls, circ merc rolls standing lib and barber dimes stupid cheap. Only problem was that there was some crappy canadian cents in there, about 8 rolls but this box is to die for.

Just kidding. Good find.
Keep us updated.
But go slow---there is a lot there for a weekend project. Go slow and enjoy it or you end up in auto-pilot and don't see what right there in front of you.
Congrats!

The more qualities observed in a coin, the more desirable that coin becomes!

Based on one I sold recently I'd say those three coins alone just paid for the rest of the box. You definitely suck in my book.

Seriously, looks like you got a great deal and something to keep you busy for some time. Hope you find some very cool varieties, maybe even a new one.

That's a solid 31-S. It certainly will pay back a lot of what you bought.
Keep keeping us posted......
