coin.galaxy Top Rated Seller, 100% positive feedback, with literally over 1,000 such rolls sold...
At least they TELL you that "I have thousands of Wheat Cents and roll them up and put a Silver Dime on the end for you !"
Their cross over the line is adding "1909svdb and 1922 plain found", which, even if true, violates the policy prohibiting mentioning things that might be included.

Gone.
Reviews are tied to products, not sellers.

..they are gamblers lured into gambling by the words used by the sellers implying the rolls might contain valuable coins.

I was looking a roll of "unsearched" Wheaties on E-Bay and the seller stated that all rolls were guaranteed to contain all S mints. I emailed the seller and asked if they are unsearched how can he know that the Wheaties were all S mints, His response was that previous buyers stated that all 50 wheats were indeed all S mints. Me being the skeptic that I am I asked if his family or friends were buying his rolls and leaving positive feedback and stating "key dates or semi key dates" found in rolls. No response after that.

There was someone on the US forum who got a BU 1909 S VDB from one of these rolls. Problem is, it was copper plated zinc. Complete fabrication; not even a heavily tooled original.

Guys I actually met one of these individuals from Craigslist, he buys wheat pennies and silver paying $0.06 each wheatie and 70% on melt value. Takes as much as he can get.
Sold him over $120 of wheat pennies best $720 ever made on 40's - 50's, nothing older and no S mints. He keeps asking when I will have more.
