"PRETTY" CRW search

Picked up $10 worth of customer-wrapped rolls yesterday. They were all notated as to their 'breeding' on the wrapper, so I knew I had something different here.

Turns out they were a "hoarder's" or possibly collector's rolls--as they were all nearly AU/BU. These rolls were picked clean. Not even a greaser in sight
I made myself four nice and shiny AU rolls and left the "reds" in place to tuck aside and the remainder will be released into the wild.

So I made a few dollars worth of collectible value and had an interesting search. Enjoy your week, everyone

Very nice finds! I've seen those types of rolls on eBay.

 

I wonder if anyone ever writes on their rolls "JUNK" or "CRAPPY ZINCOLNS" or something like that?

my bank wont accept them if there is any writing on them. so i have to put a dot on them as to not waste my time if i get them back

 

Maybe it is due to your age. I'm 71, and I used to write on the rolls all of the time.

banks around me dont accept rolled coins of any kind, they make you dump them in coin machine, so no such thing as "customer wrapped rolls" around here...

 

I write “Crappy Ikes” on my tubes of rejects that I need to start getting rid of, lol.

 

How often do they calibrate their machines? I've found that many machines can be "off" as much as 11-12% in the bank's favor.

I put an X on my junk rolls.

 

Glad you had fun Brian. CRHing does offer a way out if reality for a short time.

 

no idea, but the bank does not own them, loomis does, an the bank charges 5% to non customers..
