Not as fun to spend as the dollar coins.

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?

Well the jury is still out on 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.

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.
