WOW! That's neat to the nth degree! Man, they held up real good, and have beautiful luster.
Someone must have had an "in" with the Federal Reserve and purchased the whole shebang.

I'm glad you enjoyed the story @BuffalolronTail I know I sure did!
I remember getting $1000 bags from the bank and then selling them to a local dealer for $1200.
@golden ...wow a thousand dollar bag of 64's that were most likely all BU coins.
They were all BU and fresh from the Denver Mint. I sold several bags until the premium disappeared. $200 was a lot in 1964!
$1695 for a 65 seems high to me. I think I will pass on this. Neat history though.
UMMM................it's still a lot today.

I wonder what the odds are of a untoned 68 or 68+ in that bag ?
Very interesting story (it is also in another thread)....Would have been fun to open the bag. I would not pay a premium for one though....it really is just another 'neat label'.....Cheers, RickO
@ricko I can't believe I never seen the other thread. Sorry.
@Jimnight .... Not a problem... can easily miss a thread here....Just mentioned it so you could find it and read the comments there too....Cheers, RickO
Saw that, interesting though !!!
Very interesting, he could have put on some gloves before handling the coins but I guess they are not really high valued enough to worry about that. Neat, but once it’s separated out, it’s just another coin.

Fun to watch them open the bag! Closest I have been to that was the times I got to open original rolls of Franklin halves.
