hockingzig Pillar of the Community United States 1450 Posts	Posted 11/29/2008 5:47 pm My brother-in-law recently gave ma a bunch ofr coin wrappers he got from his great aunt's estate. They are from a bank that no longer exists. Being a freak about historical things, and with banks going under on a daily basis these days, I thought it would be really cool to start collecting vintage coin wrappers. Problem is, I don't know where to begin to find old coin wrappers. I do occasionally come across a few roll-searching but that is not very often. Anybody have any ideas where I might acquire some of them for a collection? Report this Post to the Staff

The very early ones will more than likely be pretty difficult if not expensive to aquire . what dates are the ones you have ? Report this Post to the Staff
hockingzig Pillar of the Community United States 1450 Posts	Posted 11/29/2008 10:32 pm I don't know the dates of them because I haven't done any research on them yet but I would guess they are from the 50-60's time frame. I know there must be other people who collect them I just need to make a connection with them. I have a bunch of these to trade,(see photo)so I could get some that way if I can connect to a group of collectors!

neversuited1 Pillar of the Community United States 1121 Posts	Posted 11/30/2008 12:30 am I was thinking the same thing ceaton. But it does sound like a nice collection. I agree with Metalman, having a nice collection framed.. I like to be surrounded by things I like. Report this Post to the Staff
PennehChaos Valued Member United States 311 Posts	Posted 12/02/2008 3:52 pm I've had the same problem... I lucked into a couple rolls from my local bank that had been wrapped in the old multi-denomination papers, and I've wanted more ever since... It's just hard to find them without paying a steep premium on somebody's "unsearched bank roll" Report this Post to the Staff
