Original roll or faked.....

relicsncoins

What say you?

Flip a coin.

It appears to me to have been opened before, then rolled back.

commoncents05

I say fake.

100% faked. Bright end coins in a generic, modern-style coin wrapper.

NumisOxide

Fake.

I think it could go either way. Although, fakes are ever so common.

tightbudget

Fake. That's a modern coin wrapper.

QBert

End toning looks wrong - I would say fake.

Here is the auction.

Estate....blah blah blah

It's a new lose situation for the seller. Could be a roll of clad dimes with an unc merc on each end. Open it and find out, now you can't return it. Of course this all just speculation and any all similarities to actual persons or circumstances is purily coincidental.

He never says it's an "original" roll, only that it's an old roll. "Old", being a relative term, could be only 5 years. "Unsearched by us" probably means that he had someone else search it, or the "estate" he bought it from.
Gotta read these kind of listings very carefully, then run away very quickly!

That's my take.

Old roll/Original roll whatever its BS either way!!

Here are the dimes he recently purchased to fill the " OLD" Rolls. He purchased them july 18th and is now ready for a quick flip

Run away... seriously.

Buy a lottery ticket. You might make more from it.

Fake. The key is the ripples or creases in the rolled/tucked end of the paper.. A untouched roll would not have creases or those ripples.. So, it was opened, checked and worked real hard to make it look like it was original.. Scam city baby...

Can you show a side image of the roll

I see they have lots of sportscards and comic books and thought maybe they could not tell if coins were good

but then I read this line -?

FROM ESTATE HERE IN COLORADO. NO RESERVE. WE HAVE BEEN IN BUSINESS FOR 20+ YEARS. WE ARE MEMBERS OF NGC, ANACS, ANA AND PCGS. NO RETURNS ON UNSEARCHED ROLLS, BAGS AND GRADED COINS.

The listing says it is a "shotgun" roll.

It also says "What you see is what you get". To me, this means two mercury dimes.

and I don't recall seeing those type of open end, rolled down OBW rolls even in the 70's.

First of all, this is not a machine wrapped roll. It is one of the preformed tube-style wrappers that have been filled with coins and nicely rolled on the other end. This is a labor intensive process not used by original sources. Also, these style wrappers are newer inventions.
