Another Mint item went on sale today (Declaration Of Independence Semi-q Quarters) 2 roll set (P , D) and 100 coin bags (P or D) So I'm wondering to all those who bought them, What are your plans for them? Who plans on cracking the rolls and bags open and searching for high grades, errors and/or varieties? Or will you just stack them away and hope for high % of return in the future? Please share your plans.

I got shut out of the rolls but picked up a bag of each P n D, which I plan to open and search...or should I? Let's hear from all you buyers

There are plenty of roll buyers here. I do not get it, but to each their own.

I do appreciate dealers that buy bags and rolls of coins that are not sold individually. This allows me to pick up the singles I need at coin shows.

I don't normally buy bags or rolls, but I have been buying the Semi-Q rolls this year. I *thought* about buying a bag of the Semi-Q half dollars to list on ebay but realized I don't have the time for that.

And like @jbuck, I appreciate the people that do sell them individually so I can singles to fill in album holes.

I was buying both rolls and bags more than a decade ago. There's only one roll of Sacagawea dollars that I opened. I've sold some other rolls and roll sets intact, and still hold more, and have some offered on ebay.

Other than that roll of dollars, I just couldn't bear to break them up, even some that I intended to at the time of purchase. I've still got 20 2-roll sets of 2005 Bison Nickels in their original, unopened, shipping carton, plus a few individual sets in sealed white boxes....among other things.

I guess 20 years ago I had more cash flow than common sense. I wish that were still the case today, heh! For my collection, I'd more likely buy an individual coin, even though I have that coin in a Mint Roll.
