The bad thing is, this auction *could* be legit, but there's so many scammers selling coin rolls with wheat/indian head pennies on each end, you just don't know... In a way, I was hoping someone would chime in that they bought some from him and they were 100% older than 1960. But if that was the case, they'd be sold out, or they wouldn't be selling them like this... File it under "too good to be true".[/QUOTE]
