<p>[QUOTE="steve63, post: 3038418, member: 76463"]You don't know. Any rolls from a box are going to be either 1) all brand new uncirculated coins from current year, or 2) a random assortment of circulated coins with some uncirculated new coins possibly mixed in. So you don't really know what you're getting until you open a roll although if you can see both end coins are shiny and new there's a good chance it's #1. For circulated rolls (#2) I don't think I've ever opened a roll that doesn't have at least a few pre-1982 coins in it. I'm not sure if that's common in all parts of the US, I've heard there are some areas of the country where a lot of the copper gets pulled before it goes back to the banks, but that doesn't seem to be the case where I live. I find that almost any circulated cent roll I open has at least 10-20% pre-1982 coppers in it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
