[QUOTE="masterswimmer, post: 7309585, member: 102022"]My wife manages a retail store that does incredibly low cash business. Most purchases are tendered via CC and/or insurance. I say this because she doesn't really open all that many coin rolls weekly. Well today was one of those rare times she needed to break open a cent roll. It was a BWR so what she found was certainly unexpected. Mrs swimmer isn't a coin collector, but she's been married to one for 36 years. So she knows the drill. :) Upon opening the roll she's smacked in the face with a plethora of 'old coins'. She saw almost a whole roll of wheaties. 33 to be exact. She replaced the 33¢ with her own change and brought the cache home. Here's the take: [ATTACH=full]1277893[/ATTACH] From left to right: 1919, 1920, 3x30's, 8x40's, 19x50's, and on the bottom a lone 1909. [ATTACH=full]1277899[/ATTACH] I hesitated flipping it over while I explained what we were now looking for on the reverse to Mrs swimmer. Holding my breath I flipped it over..... [ATTACH=full]1277897[/ATTACH] I can see VF30 maybe VF35. Thoughts are welcome.[/QUOTE]
