I guess 20 years ago I had more cash flow than common sense. I feel the same way about my car stereo days.  |

I feel the same way about my car stereo days. OMG, and there was that too! But when the car the equipment was installed in was totaled by Hurricane Michael, I removed most of it before getting rid of the car. Sadly, it all sits on a shelf today, LOL. It's worth more than the 2nd hand car I bought to replace the totaled one. |

It was good you got it all out, if only to avoid getting the short end from the insurance people.  I still have all the pieces that I took out of a car before selling it. I did not even use any of it in the next car; it got an all new system. Not sure why I never sold any of those older pieces. The "all new system" got parted out when I sold that car. Now I have had the same car with factory audio, bought new in 2009. I call that progress.  But I digress. This is about bags and rolls.  |

Or will you just stack them away and hope for high % of return in the future? I'm saving my mint rolled and boxed quarters - Why? IDK   Quote:

Dearborn is this a hobby or an addiction for you, so you have no intention to check for maybe a MS68/69 or maybe a double struck flip-over diddly bob?

I am not inclined to go through 2,000 Nickels looking for a Speared Bison that in all probability is not there, ending up with $100 worth of loose Nickels. I'll let someone with younger eyeballs do that. |

If I'm interested in a particular coin, I might buy a US Mint roll of them. Especially the SemiQ coins. Rarely do I buy bags but I do sometimes buy empty ones on ebay. Although I did get a bag of SemiQ half dollars. Never break them open nor do I hope for a profit someday. I just like collecting certain Mint products and their packaging. |

Okay, I have to admit, if the US Mint had created 2021 Eisenhower dollars— as they should have—I would have bought the rolls, assuming they were offered. |

I bought the mint rolls of dollars, half dollars, and quarters for quite a few years. I still have them but haven't bought any new ones in probably 10 years. Don't have any plan for them. Quote:

That is at least two Pintos that did not get exploded. At least, I assume they did not. If so, I guess you survived to tell the tale.  |
