Hello, I have seen a lot of Wheat penny coin rolls for sale on ebay that say "unsearched", some have a Barber dime ender and some have a Indian head ender. Is this correct, did the mints actually put those coins in with penny's? Correct me in I'm wrong, but can you buy a tool that recrimps or crimps the roll ends like original? Also, how can they be truly unsearched with a different coin ender? Any help with buying coins labled "unsearched" or coin rolls would be greatly appriciated! Thanks in advance.

to the CCF, mvsvette!
Those rolls have certainly been "searched" - otherwise how would they know that it's all wheat cents inside? And the enders were put there intentionally to lure in gullible buyers. And yes, there are devices sold to re-crimp rolls. I assume that any roll I see for sale on ebay has been tampered with.

HondoB beat me to answer, including the graphic I likely would've posted, LOL.
There are legit rolls available, but this kind of ad is deceptive.
