I'm interested to hear from those of you who've opened these in the past. Are the examples found in the bags and rolls essentially the same condition-wise or have you noticed a difference? If so, which has been better? Thanks in advance for weighing in.

bags have coins moving against each other
They are mostly going to be the same. Depending on the size of the coin, you may see a slight difference in the rolls. But they all get banged around until they are rolled.
All comments reflect the opinion of the author, even when irrefutably accurate.
Here is a random sample
pretty good actually
They look better than the images
Looks better then what I've been seeing posted
I'm telling you they look better in hand.... my I pad is kinda old , picture wise
Maybe I got lucky ?
Are those coins from rolls or a bag?
There from a bag
I just opened up a mint bag and was pleasantly surprised at how nice the Ps were. A few bank wrapped rolls of Ps from different sources were pretty spotty and bagmarked. The Ds in the mint bag were OK, but not quite as nice as some of the bank wrapped rolls I've broken open.
My official de-bagging of the 200 coin bag of halves.
Surprisingly less bag marks than I expected. at first glance.
These are truly Half & Half Halves...half P and half D.
I'm glad to hear this ! I have one more bag arriving on Tuesday . I will let you know how they look !
I really wish the mint mark was larger , so the old duffers like me could see them better .... LOL
I plan to open my bag this afternoon. I've been doing this for years and the quality is really hit n miss.
I have found that the D mint coins looks better the P mint.
In my $100 bag I found the P mint coins to be more attractive. It varies year by year that's for sure.
