<p>[QUOTE="Bambam8778, post: 5178965, member: 80341"]Hi Briana. If I've never officialy said welcome, Welcome! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> It's nice to be able to get rolls in this pandemic! I still save my 2017 P's. In regards to the question about the way the material the rolls are wrapped in, no, there would be nothing that would set them apart. It is solely the decision of the company who wraps them as to what they use. I know here in my area, we have paper rolls, not plastic shrink wrap. I get N.F. String & Son's and Loomis rolls. They are both paper wrappers and I get them equally between the different banks I use. The "Fed" or the mint (as I said earlier I think you were referring to) does not wrap coins intended for circulation. The photo that Pckin & Grinin shared above is how they upsell those same uncirculated coins that you get to collectors. They have done it in most denominations I think but they do not wrap them to send to banks. The Philadelphia mint is not known for very strong business strikes, you are correct. If you do come across them, they are worth putting in a folder or a 2X2 to keep. It can also be draining to go through a whole box of brand new cents. I haven't done it in a while but I usually take on the task. I know most people will go through a few and return them to the bank. The location of your die cracks that you found is notoriuous for the shield cent. If you have a very large die crack then it would be interesting to see! </p><p>In regards to how many rolls I would save, well that's up to you. I try to hang on to as many as I can that makes sense to do so. What you collect and how many is the great thing about the hobby. You do as you please and what makes you happy. I would personally say hang on to whatever you have left. You can keep a couple rolls, give a few out to new collectors in a club (if you belong), whatever makes you happy. I hope this helps and thanks for sharing![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
