<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kurisu, post: 8259124, member: 117063&quot;]A great place to inquire is at local coin shops. They can give you a bit of a lesson in rolls and will also tell you what they know, especially if you ask...&quot;are these searched?&quot; is a good place to start.</p><p><br /></p><p>There is a lot to learn and definitely a lot of experience and wisdom comes into play with these types of rolls. There are great rolls that technically are searched coins but the rolls were created decades ago, so there are plenty of potential winners in those rolls.</p><p>It&#039;s a whole other level of experience when your trying to identify whether a roll is authentically vintage, or authentically unsearched, or even rolls of BU coins...My knowledge comes from searching rolls since the 70&#039;s lol.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here are some authentic vintage rolls I purchased recently...here&#039;s the thing. They are authentically vintage, my guess is from the 80&#039;s. So they are not authentic vintage rolls from the age of wheaties, like what you may have gotten in the form of a &quot;customer roll&quot; back then. I have more of these same rolls and have made some wonderful finds in them! But price is key if you&#039;re genuinely not sure about the details of a roll...<b>CRHing purchased rolls is gambling. Don&#039;t spend more than you can afford to loose!</b> Especially while you&#039;re learning.</p><p><br /></p><p>Notice some clues...both ends nice and tight (when old or new coin rolls are re-closed with a manual roller they are NEVER as tight as they were originally), these are actual vintage wrappers (though various old coin wraps are incredibly easy to get), actual circulated coins on the ends without suspiciously interesting end coins like Indian Heads, silver dimes, or 1909 or other key/semi-key dates, or seemingly BU ends. And also notice there doesn&#039;t seem to be unusual wear on the rolls for rolls which have actually been stored for decades.</p><p>Out of all 12 of these rolls I just received, none of them has anything suspicious going on.</p><p>Again...key point, with shipping these rolls cost me just under $14 each!!!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1456383[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1456384[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1456385[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
