Considering the lack of spots maybe there is a 67 or higher.

I reccomend opening them. Search for RPMs, highest grade examples, and toned coins.

Thanks for all the advice,I am going to open them all,I'm not into it for the money,it's the hunt,temporary lapse of judgment because it was a weird find for me.

Man, that's quite a jump between MS66 and 67. I would have never guessed high grade Lincolns could fetch such a price.

Went through 4 rolls very carefully and found 2 different types,1 with 3 small die chips on reverse and the other(majority) error free,no rpm's and while all ms even my untrained eye doesn't see any perfect 67 or better.
My friend who reignited my coin interest will be home this week from the fun show and I will have him inspect and report back.

update,never heard back from teller so I went there yesterday and teller said guy never came back so I bought $25 more dollars worth of customer rolled and she gave me 7 more of the same rolls she said were loose outside of box.I gave her a $20 as I was leaving and said thanks and she was so confused what for, I think no one ever tipped her before.Ive gone through 7 rolls of these and have found 2 rpm-006,so hoping for more,taking pics with shiny coins is rough but it has the die scratch behind the head.  |

Congrats on the RPM's.
Very nice teller.
Be careful about tipping though because the bank might have a policy against tellers accepting tips to avoid any conflict of interest. Treats, cookies, etc. might be ok but $ might be frowned upon.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

That's a shame that you haven't found any gem grade coins. It further cements my contention that you can't just go buy rolls (or mint sets) and pull out MS-67 and up coins.
