<p>[QUOTE="cladking, post: 26578159, member: 68"]This could get interesting since the BU roll market is heating up. It's hard to imagine that all 500 of these sets which I believe has been filled would only make ten rolls of cents or dimes. Most BU rolls come from mint sets so this is a crucial factor. I say it makes ten rolls of cents but this is misleading since you'll only have about six rolls of the Phillys survive an acetone soak. The others are permanently tarnished. These will be pretty nice rolls since mint set coins are so nice. About 100 of these coins will be nice MS-64 or better. Few coins will be less than MS-63 and they'll all be well struck. </p><p><br /></p><p>Making BU rolls is going to blow through an awful lot of mint sets. </p><p><br /></p><p>It's interesting to see this develop. Most of the surviving modern coins are outside the hobby. When the mint sets are gone it's going to be hard to stock any of these coins and a few dates like the '69 and '76 are showing signs of stress. I seriously doubt higher prices can bring most moderns to market. Almost all of them no longer exist and the survivors exist outside the mainstream hobby.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
