<p>[QUOTE=&quot;coleguy, post: 294887, member: 9167&quot;]I don&#039;t do a lot of roll searching anymore, but I&#039;d say the banks in smaller communities are the ones more likely to not re-wrap their coins that customers bring in. I know mine doesn&#039;t. This could be an advantage. About twenty years ago my friend and I were roll serching nickels. We bought about $20 each. Lots of the usual, as I remember, 40&#039;s and 50&#039;s (usual for twenty + years ago in rolls), and then, my friend opened a roll, all non-bank wrapped mind you, and discovered an entire roll of Buffalo nickels! All common dates, but it was quite a surprise. I imagine some old lady got tired of the coin collection sitting in a box collecting dust and wrapped them all up and took them to the bank. It probably happens more than we think. And fortunately, those of us lucky enough to live in small towns where banks trust the customer&#039;s coin counting abilities and don&#039;t re-wrap, have the opportunity to find a few exciting treasures once in a while.</p><p>Guy~[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
