<p>[QUOTE="GSDykes, post: 2422622, member: 73321"]Thanks for your interesting information Bill G. The roll I purchased (seen in the preceding photo), was NOT a OBW. It says on the wrap that it was "wrapped" by the Hanley Coinrap Co. apparently of SF [San Francisco]. The coins all had an odd color, like they had been mass cleaned. Each had numerous bag marks, but little wear. Lots of copper corrosion. No minor metal dust particles, which one often sees in rolls which have been tightly wrapped for decades! The seller does not know that he is not selling OBW rolls IMHO. I informed him in feed back. Each coin had the identical color, a yellowish-pink-copper color. Which I suspect is not their actual uncirculated color. This roll supports your information. This is a roll put together later by some entrepreneur, hoping to profit off the future sales of 1974 S mint cents. All of the uncirculated specimens I have are darker in color and more reddish-copper color. OH, did Rick Stachowski ever get Potter's opinion on the wild hair 1974 large date hair do??</p><p>Gary in Washington[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
