<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cladking, post: 23855, member: 68&quot;]I haven&#039;t started collecting any of the ultra-moderns yet but those who do keep telling me that there is no difference between the mint rolls and the bank rolls.&nbsp; Of course they could well be wrong and even if they&#039;re generally correct there&#039;s a good chance it&#039;s not correct in every case.&nbsp; It&#039;s also possible that they are talking about the highest quality rather than average quality or some other gauge.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>It is possible that the mint rolls are trading largely on their status of original packaging.&nbsp; There is great precedent for this.&nbsp; There&#039;s a Japanese mint set that sells for $500+ but contains coins with a total value of only about $20.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>While the mintages you quote are low, it should be remembered that most coin collectors do not collect rolls, bags, original packaging etc.&nbsp; If you enjoy these then by all means collect or save them and there&#039;s a good chance you&#039;ll do well on them.&nbsp; If you have little interest in them, the odds are good that other collectors won&#039;t either and any &quot;investment&quot; in them is risky.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
