    This makes two rolls in a row on this board with a Civil War token and then a quarter eagle in a roll with stripped paper. Excuse me, but I'm getting suspicious that perhaps a little "roll seasoning" is going on. image

    No returns, 'nuff said. What's to say these are not counterfeit coins too?

    It cracks me up that people actually believe this crap. The rolls are common Kmart specials. You can buy these rolls at all major store chains.

    I heard a story about a bank teller finding a $2.5 gold Indian in a 50c roll of lincolns.

    I have no knowledge about this particular seller, but it seems to me the "unsearched" cent roll concept has morphed over the years. This is how I remember it going:

    2-3 years ago --> simply "unsearched"
    2 years ago --> "unsearched" bank Wrapped/found in an old bank/vending route, etc.
    In the last year --> "unsearched" with a teaser semi-key showing (like a 1909 s showing ...could it be the VDB?)
    In the last 6 months --> "unsearched" with gold coins, and other nice early types (could it be the 1916D mercury?)

    Maybe this one is legit, but I wouldn't bid...it's just too convenient that these nice rolls keep showing up with amazing possible key/semi-key coins showing on the end.

    What's that saying? if it sounds too good to be true...

    Probably a whole roll of quarter eagles, right?

    In Baley's example, my guess is someone spent $350 too much for a roll of go fish, but one never knows until they "GO FISH".
    24 hour sale. image I miss them all the time.

    The unsearched, estate, old couple roll gimmick continues to do well, and will go on forever. The same sellers continually list these rolls all the time, with a gem/key, or hopes of a key on the end. There is a never ending supply of buyers willing to gamble. No one wins but the seller. In the case of the Indian quarter eagle, the buyer will probably receive a cleaned piece, worth half what he paid. No different than 3 card Monty at Penn Station, the players never win.
