<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cladking, post: 3224911, member: 68&quot;]Some original clad rolls are almost impossible even in typical condition.</p><p><br /></p><p>The best example of this is the &#039;69-P quarter roll.&nbsp; There aren&#039;t any!!&nbsp; A few wholesalers sold them right up through 1981 but they were exceedingly poor sellers and there total sales appear to be less than about 500 rolls for most dates.&nbsp; They often bought back these rolls over the years to make complete roll sets and most of these were sold to wholesalers who made date/ denomination sets. </p><p><br /></p><p>I literally haven&#039;t seen an intact roll of &#039;69 quarters since 1969 despite a great deal of looking. </p><p><br /></p><p>I didn&#039;t save any in &#039;69 because they were all very poor coins and it was three years before I started collecting clad. But I just happen to have three &quot;original&quot; &#039;69 rolls anyway and they are very &quot;gemmy&quot;.&nbsp; It happened when I got two nice BU &#039;69&#039;s in change at a coin shop.&nbsp; When I inquired he had recently put four rolls&nbsp;&nbsp; in the till he bought from a customer.&nbsp; There were still about 130 in it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Most rolls you see are actually from mint sets.&nbsp;&nbsp; This is just as well since mint set quality is far better.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
