<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DJP7x0s, post: 134967, member: 5336&quot;]I have been buying rolls of coins on Ebay alot lately. Mostly Indian cents, Buffalo and V- Nickles, and Mercury Dimes. Anyhow, I just recently bought a roll of Indians for $25. So before I got the roll, I thought I was getting a good deal. When the roll showed up, to my surprise, it was full of better dates. About 15 of them were Copper nickle with a few flying eagles. The majority of the rest were from the 1870s. And almost every single coin in the roll had excelent details with full liberty that I would grade as EF. So just about every coin in there, Ive been watching sell on ebay anywhere from $50 to $100. Im so glad I scored the entire roll for only $25(Shipping Included). Id say the best coins from the roll are 2 1872s, one grades EF and lists at $450 in my red book, and the other in also an 1872 which I am sending out to be slabbed because it is without doubt, high end mint state, which lists at $925 in MS 63 in my red book. You should see my Indian collection now, almost complete, missing only 1877 and 1909 s, and soon every coin will be atleast EF(I have to upgrade just a few of the more common dates). </p><p>&nbsp;So I wrote to the guy I bought the coins off of, I didnt want to make him feel bad, so I only thanked him for the beautiful coins and told him that I was impressed with the selection of dates. He wrote back to me telling me how happy he was that I was happy with the roll, and told me that he knew nothing about coins, that his grandfather had left him his collection when he passed away. Said hes had them for years, had them since he was just little, and guessed that he had them for about 60 years and never even looked at them. I just wish that I had bought that roll off of him before he had sold off the entire collection in the form of rolls. I bought his last roll.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
