Message:: [QUOTE="clembo, post: 363740, member: 8033"]If you're going to sell honestly the shotgun roll should not have much bearing on final bid.I have shotgun rolls of straight date Memorial cent rolls. In that case it actually IS the thrill of the "hunt" for errors, primo examples etc. A shotgun roll of Indians is nothing more that 50 Indians placed in a "shotgun" roll. Scammers put that nice coin on the end to get the "braindead" fired up. Unfortunately it works. I recently sold a "Killer Roll" of Linconls. 43 different dates before 1939 including a nice VDB. I listed all of the dates in the roll and stated I'd toss in a few more to complete the roll. Basically what I sold was a decent "starter" set for $20.Now had I been out to scam I would have placed them in a shotgun roll with the VDB showing and some cheesy title like "Possible SVDB?" knowing, of course, that it wasn't. Would have put a lot more money in my pocket for sure. I could use the money but refuse to stoop to that level. Bottom line. If you're going to sell rolls of Indians honestly why bother with a shotgun roll? clembo[/QUOTE]
