<p>[QUOTE=&quot;superc, post: 1723615, member: 44079&quot;]4 rolls of &#039;unsearched&#039; pennies last night.&nbsp; Unsearched since 1960 may have been a more accurate description.&nbsp; I recognized the print on the roll paper, 50s and 60s vintage rolls.&nbsp; I want to say skunk, but can&#039;t quite.&nbsp; Yes, some dated but common Mercury dimes in fair or g4 and an ef 48 Roosie.&nbsp; Most of the pennies very heavily worn.&nbsp; Very interesting to me that there was about a 1/3 each mix of no mint mark, D mint and S mint coins.&nbsp; I normally see one predominate.&nbsp; This even mix of mintmarks to me implies the origin of the roll was not a vendor doing business primarily in just one area (early mail order vendor back in the days when coins and bills came in the mail?), or perhaps a 50s or 60s era coin shop doing their own rolls?&nbsp; Whatever.&nbsp; Some heavily worn (is there a G2 grade where the date (and everything else) can only be read with a magnifier?&nbsp; If so, I have some) Indian Heads.&nbsp; In 4 rolls, no coin newer than 1948.&nbsp; Predominantly 1940s pennies.&nbsp; A few 43 steel pennies (including one in AU).&nbsp; Best find was a about 7 pennies from 1911 to 1915, but so faint in markings overall.&nbsp; Over 25 S mark pennies.&nbsp; I will look later for Whitman book holes where they may fit.&nbsp; Danced all around it, but no 31S penny.&nbsp; No 1916D dime either.&nbsp; Durn it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
