Looks like a good deal to me. For $11.50 you will get one wheat penny and 49 copper pennies worth about .70 cents at best.

I like the 4 photos from 4 different angles of the same end. It's at least 4 times more convincing than the other "wheat-ender" rolls for sale.

The one thing I will say is: at least this is probably a TRUE unsearched roll.

So in some ways it is better than many eBay rolls.

You gotta wonder how someone can find estates with so many rolls of coins that some recluse stashed away with semi-key dates on the ends? Why isn't there a reality show based on these estate hunters finding all these amazing rolls? LOL.


Just for the heck of it, seems that setting aside cent rolls that have a wheatback or Canadian on their end(s) might be a fine pastime for Ebay auctions down the road. Who knows, those rolls may go for high $$ about 50 years from now if there is still an Ebay then.

ah you can buy a device that crimps rolls... just sayin I wouldnt touch that seller.

Would it be out of the question to say that most of the unsearched roll buyers are newbies and do not tabulate the actual value of coins in the rolls vs. what they pay for them? I think these rolls are salted with coins that the seller amortizes into the auction starting price(s). I guess we all could get into this act. Sigh.

Bwahahahahaha!:

I've seen these kind of auctions before..but obviously never have bought one... I am just curious what you would get with it. Is is literally just one wheat cent, are the rest CU or Zincolns?

I think most get a bunch of common date wheatbacks or some IHCs along with the front-running end coin. Ebay loses my interest some weeks. I gave up looking for junk silver on it long ago. Finding Canadian coins are raked over with outrageous opening bid prices or get overbids for common date non-Ag coins. I am thinking that why bother buying anything new and hot right now anyway. Wait a good number of years and you can get stuff for a lot less.
