It's much the same as now when I go to my bank - I just got two rolls of 2007-D cents. Both ends show a 2007-D cent and the assumption is that the rest of the roll contains the same. And they are uncirculated or at worst AU. Now if the poster is talking about an OBW roll that contains a mix of dates, then something is wrong. Either they are not all uncirculated or they have been sorted and then put into rolls. So if randall is talking about rolls of circulated 60's and 70's cents that happen to be bank-rolled, then they are nothing special and I can understand Carl and Treashunt's remarks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
