Message:: [QUOTE="Packrat, post: 2892336, member: 71780"]I love it when they sell an old unsearched roll with a dime on the end. I generally pay 3 cents each. The time I bought 78,400 for 3 cents and sold them for 3.5 cents I truly did not search them. That does not mean the late husband of the lady who sold them to me had not searched them. She and her daughter had rolled up about 355 rolls by date. I counted the rest with my coin counter, trying to pull out any memorials as I went. I have noticed that many people have Canadian cents mixed in with their wheats. Dealer I sold them to looked through one bag and found an 1911 in au. I sell in the antique mall for $4 per roll and the local flea market dealer sells them at the coin club meeting for 22.50 for 500. I do not pull out the steel cents as I think it spices up the rolls and gives the customer a little more for their money. I also leave in earlier dates but there's not going to be any keys in the bunch-not because I pull them out but generally speaking they are not there to begin with.  There has to be someone close to Palm City who will pay 3 cents, but if not, somewhere down the line a roll searcher will be happy.[/QUOTE]
