| Original Bank Wrapped Franklin Roll.
I purchased a 1960-D "Original (supposedly) Bank Wrapped Franklin Roll" on-line. The coins are wrapped in a very poor quality brown paper and wrapped very poorly/loosely. The paper has a stamp of the company who wrapped it. The end coins are beyond recognition due to tarnishing/toning.
I paid $20 extra for an original bank wrapped roll and was advised not to open it as it will loose the value once opened! I was thinking of opening the roll and transferring the coins to a tube, to protect them from further tarnishing/toning, and to examine other coins in the roll. What would you do? Thanks!
