<p>[QUOTE="MAKECENTS, post: 1915500, member: 29930"]Hello guys I was at a show this weekend and got to talking with one of the big big dealers I do business with. I was trying selling him some original franklin bank wrapped rolls when he bragged to me about how he doesn't buy real original rolls ...he makes them. Now maybe I am naiive but I usually can spot a roll on eBay claiming to be original and is not but this dealers rolls were pretty much identical to real original bank wrapped rolls. He continued saying he payed $40 thousand for the coin roller and has bank wrappers made from a company to look exactly like the old ones. He said the rollar has paid for itself many times over by making hundreds of 90% rolls. I even think he takes the time to weather them so they look older. I was shocked. Has anyone actually heard of dealers doing this or is this yet another thing I should have known about. And if he could trick my eye and I have held many many original rolls from the original owners, how can anyone know for sure if a original roll is Turkey original.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
