Unsearched wheat roll, without the wheat!

This is interesting... maybe a freudian slip? A seated dime on one end, an Indian on the other end, 48 1950s wheat cents in between???

Unsearched Wheat Roll

I would be interested to know what is in between but I know that the seller always wins on auctions like this.image

    Look at his other auctions, IMO he is rolling the coins himself.

    I agree.

    "In this roll you could find any number of wheats, IH, silver dimes, and possibly more."

    So in other words, there could be all 2000-D Lincolns in between the 1875 liberty seated dime & 1896 Indian cent.

    And yet bidders line up to give him money...

    I think its that lure of finding a large cent mixed in those rolls that get so many bidders.

    There’s a new tactic being employed now. One end roll coin is a transit token with holes in the design with a mercury dime or other bait behind it. Twice the mystery for $40

    All that and more. "unsearched" on Ebay is less trustworthy than a stripper telling you she is a virgin. I would trust the stripper more.

    @ARCO....Still laughing.... There is a cartoon with a guy and gal sitting at a table with drinks... the guy says "I am an honest politician." And the gal - an obvious hooker - says "And I am a virgin." :D Cheers, RickO
