so my partners dad is letting us sort through his coins that his grandmother gave him and all the wrappers are these older style that I have never seen before but I am in total love with them. Each wrapper has 2 windows and is printed with denominations from 1 cent to 1 dollar and depending on what you roll in the coin, that number will show in the window. Has anybody else seen these before? There are several that are brand new and have never been rolled and I have took some pictures of them. What do you think? Anybody else think this is a neat idea? the patent says May 31, 1921

Well, I know steel strong rolls were made in the 40s last, but I don't know exactly what date these are.

Those are so cool they probably have collector value on their own. Or you could throw some cull Wheaties into them and sell as "Unsearched" on ebay for a king's ransom.  (I keed, I keed)

I've seen many sellers on ebay selling "unsearched" rolls after discovering wrappers like this. They certainly have value to con artists.

I'm pretty sure they have collectible value. They worth whatever the amount someone willing to pay. If you can truly prove/verify the date printed on the envelope is accurate... you may have more people interested..... if they are that old (the coins holding them would be even better..... Good luck and enjoy.

Interesting part of coin collecting for sure. As far as worth well if enough collectors are out there who collect them then there could be some value.
