Cheap Penny Tubes??

Postby NDFarmer » Sun Apr 03, 2011 6:11 pm

I am looking for the least expensive penny tubes I can find. I have been rolling up some of my pre-1940 pennies and I am about out of tubes. I am looking for the round plastic coin tubes with the screw on top. I am looking to buy 500 or 1000 at a time. The cheapest I have found are about .20 cents apiece. Do any of you know of any place to buy them cheaper? Thanks.

ND-

I have some paper ones and a tube that counts to fifty pennies. I don't need them anymore, and you're more than welcome to have them for shipping and time.

20 cents each is what I paid for 200 tubes from an ebay seller. He doesn't appear to have any penny tubes listed now, though.

Also the Ebay seller I used is in NY so the shipping is less to ND. :D

I have bags of wheats for sale in the Buy It Now market section for $190.00 a bag shipped to you. You won't find them much cheaper than that.

Check with some local coin dealers.. you can often buy used tubes for a very good price.

If I remember correctly.. you have one o' dem fancy automatic rolling machines. Just put a fresh roll of paper on that bad boy and roll them up nice.. then make a custom label on your computer.. Avery 5160 is a good label for penny rolls. Cost.. less than a zinc penny per roll. :mrgreen:
If your percentages are low.. just sort more. If your percentages are high.. just sort more
