<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Blaubart, post: 1622651, member: 37498&quot;]I&#039;m not trying to be argumentative, but I wonder why it seems a lot of people assume anytime someone sells coins in a roll, that they&#039;re supposedly &quot;unsearched&quot; or running some sort of scam.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have seen the silly auctions that advertise penny rolls as &quot;unsearched&#039; with a mercury dime on the end.&nbsp; But not all auctions or sales are like that, and many people who sell coins in rolls are not trying to be &quot;less-than-forthright&quot;.&nbsp; For example, one of the sellers mentioned in the OP, &quot;hsturn&quot;, does a very good job of describing what is up for sale and has decent pictures of the coins laid out.&nbsp; They are not advertised as being &quot;sealed in an original bank roll&quot; or &quot;unsearched&quot; or any other such nonsense.</p><p><br /></p><p>So why is it that this is a &quot;pipedream&quot;, or &quot;less-than-forthright&quot;, or &quot;isn&#039;t any different from someone who claims to have unsearched rolls...&quot;&nbsp; I think there is a big difference:&nbsp; Some sellers claim their coins are unsearched and others do not.&nbsp; I don&#039;t really think it&#039;s fair to lump them all together into the same assumption.</p><p><br /></p><p>The reason I want to know about this is simple: I have sold coins in rolls before and probably will in the future.&nbsp; Primarily bullion coins, but also some buffaloes and war nickels.&nbsp; Stuff that came in a lot of coins where I wanted the majority of what was in the lot, but there was also stuff I didn&#039;t want.&nbsp; Of course I would rather not be viewed as being &quot;less-than-forthright&quot;, so I don&#039;t claim that they&#039;re &quot;unsearched&quot; even though I didn&#039;t search through them.&nbsp; Does this mean I should sell them individually rather than in rolls?&nbsp; No thanks![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
