I figured the nickels to be from the 1960s and maybe early early 1970s at the newest. Sorry about the photos but I was rushing to get them uploaded before work.
If you DO open it, (I would have to, like most people here) I would definitely unroll one end. You could roll it back up when you out all the coins back if you want. It wouldnt be perfect, but it would still be together.
I just remembered I have about $3.00 in dimes I need to go put in the coin bank to roll up. And for the record, still no interest in unwrapping my nickel roll. The sad thing is, if it was an old Lincoln Wheat cent roll, I would tear into it like a kid opening a Christmas present. Such a double standard.
The top nickel pictured is more modern than 1970's. I would say 1980's or more likely 1990's. The lower nickel looks like a 50's or 60's. I'd have to open it. However, if you really like it...keep it. That's what are hobby is all about.
Just an update...still haven't opened it. I looked at it though and walked right on by without unwrapping it. I did, however, unwrap an ice cream sandwich to eat. It's 103 degrees outside. Ice cream is more refreshing than nickels would be.
