<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Blaubart, post: 1584921, member: 37498&quot;]Actually, that&#039;s not always why they are put in rolls, and yes, there can still be some numismatic value when they are in rolls.</p><p><br /></p><p>I had a bunch of 2004 silver proof sets that I bought as an investment.&nbsp; When I went to sell them, I studied FeeBay auctions to try and determine the best way to sell them.&nbsp; Individually, in lots of five, lots of ten, etc.&nbsp; I noticed there were people selling silver proofs in rolls and at the price they were selling, I figured I could make more by selling the silver proofs in rolls than I could make by selling the sets individually, and I&#039;d have a whole lot less shipping to do, and I&#039;d still have the non-silver proofs that I could sell.</p><p><br /></p><p>So no, not all rolls are full of coins that couldn&#039;t make the grade and yes, they can still have numismatic value.&nbsp; Why else would they sell for more than they would in their OGP, which absolutely do have numismatic value?</p><p><br /></p><p>Now, in the year since I sold these, I have also noticed prices dropping.&nbsp; Rolls of silver proofs are not selling for the same premiums as they were before.&nbsp; They are selling for about the same price as pre-1965 coins.&nbsp; I suppose some might consider that to be a &quot;collapse in the numismatic value for rolled silver proof coins&quot;.&nbsp; I don&#039;t know if I&#039;d go so far as to call it a &quot;collapse&quot;, but the market is certainly down.</p><p><br /></p><p>I guess by your earlier post, I&#039;m one of those &quot;stupid&quot; guys that busted up some silver proof sets to roll them up.&nbsp; Meh, whatever.&nbsp; I was laughing like an idiot all the way to the bank.&nbsp; With any luck, the value of other people&#039;s 2004 Silver Proof Sets went up by about .0001% due to the scarcity increasing ever so slightly.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now, can we please stop with the name calling and insults?&nbsp; Thanks! :thumb:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
