Marking Coins While Roll Searching

<p>[QUOTE="Fifty, post: 905681, member: 24555"]Maybe I should have given a little more background or reasoning for marking. The rolls I am getting are professionally rolled. I can't reuse the paper. I am searching Halves and I try and only mark the high mintage dates from the 70's. I don't know what happens to them after I turn them in. I am guessing that they get rewrapped by machine if someone orders them. If that someone happens to be me then I will know. Maybe marking is bad but it's not as bad as drilling or gouging as I have seen. I have come accross many marked coins that the marking is pretty much faded. I mark four coins in a roll and I have yet to see one of my marks yet. If I start seeing them consistently then I will know that I have exhausted the supply of unsearched halves. I'll have to sit out a few months and wait for more people to cash in old stuff and start again.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
