I don't know what price guide you are talking about.
You own more than 333,334 1989-D Cents?
I too have been shocked at what I see being graded at 67, but usually those coins are of scarce dates, where it is obvious the grades are a lot...
Very depressing. Counterfeits make collecting a lot harder.
It's true that Meghrig rolls often contain many gem coins and varieties. They were put away in the early 60's, and shrunk by the mid-70's such...

The tubes in question are more than 50 years old. They were from the 60's. Likely they don't make these anymore, especially given the poor reputation.
Odd post...not sure what you're referring to. The tubes that shrink were produced by and marked Meghrig, and have a slip-on fitted cap, not white...
Lots of talk from folks who have never done this. Is there anyone on this forum who has actually removed coins from a Meghrig roll?
I have a roll of 1943-S that is stuck in one of these blasted tubes. Others probably have valuable rolls as well. So the question of how to open...
Unfortunately, the Meghrig tubes that folks are talking about are extremely strong and thick-walled. They are made from a different material than...
I have never damaged a coin by my method of carefully cutting the tube lengthwise, then snapping the cut open. Have you ever actually used your...
Yep, like I'm going to do that on 1000 coins, and maybe thousands more if I am lucky enough to buy more of these Meghrig rolls! Get real. Cutting...
Yep, that's what happens. You must never let moisture condense on copper or it ruins the surface. Condensation is worse than just putting water on...
And the debate will continue ad infinitum. Meantime, I will open my Meghrig rolls by carefully cutting them open, revealing the pristine BU coins...
The reason I would never freeze the roll to free the coins, in spite of decades of folks suggesting it, is that once the coins come out of the...
In the past I've used a hacksaw and cut a slit down the length of the tube, almost deep enough to hit the coin edges. Then I take a flat blade...
That statue is super cool! I don't have a Canadian Sovereign yet. I think it's very cool to have gold that is known to come from different regions.
Take a look at these. Don't forget to zoom in!! Taken with a Canon T2i, plus a few accessories: https://easyzoom.com/image/124047...
It is of course theoretically possible. I bought a $20 mint bag of 1945-S Cents, and all the coins were from the same die pair. All 40 rolls....
