kenney Valued Member Canada 316 Posts	Posted 08/15/2013 06:31 am as for the 1st one I can't say. The 2nd, the serial are matching but one is a replacement roll, is it extremely rare. I think not, just need a lot of patience and searching but for the price he's asking, I'd take the time to look. Report this Post to the Staff

inward New Member Canada 25 Posts	Posted 08/15/2013 10:40 am Look at his other items for sale, has a bunch of special wrap rolls, even a roll that comes with a matching 'replacement' roll.... If he can print off a matching numbered roll with an 'R' at the end, i'd have to guess all the rest are copies with either new numbers printed or blank. At those prices it looks like he is hoping someone will hook onto the bait and make a quick buck. Edited by inward 08/15/2013 10:47 am Report this Post to the Staff
inward New Member Canada 25 Posts	Posted 08/15/2013 10:58 am I didn't know the mint made replacement rolls, here is another, http://www.ebay.com/itm/REPLACEMENT...em4ac7f8ff71 and another, http://www.ebay.com/itm/Special-Wra...em1c356c535a It looks like the mint made replacement rolls for some of the rolls that had problems.

Coin Chick Pillar of the Community Canada 1354 Posts	Posted 08/15/2013 11:06 am I think there was this same topic in the NCLT section. Someone mentioned the possibility of acetone to remove numbers. I would be Leary without seeing them in person. Report this Post to the Staff
john100 Pillar of the Community Canada 5324 Posts	Posted 08/15/2013 11:28 am Even if these rolls coa are real RCM issued products, it just shows the accuracy of the mints coa regarding these rolls. It just amazes me that people pays 50.00 for a roll of 50 ordinary 2012 pennies. Report this Post to the Staff
inward New Member Canada 25 Posts	Posted 08/15/2013 11:36 am The replacement rolls should have been numbered 20,001/20,000 etc. I wonder how many replacement rolls were made. Whoever has 20,000/20,000 doesn't really have the 'last' roll. Report this Post to the Staff
Coin Chick Pillar of the Community Canada 1354 Posts	Posted 08/15/2013 11:43 am Replacement stickers should have only been made due to ones that were wrecked during production. Ones that were produced without issues would have been sold and never had the option for a replacement number if it was damaged later. that's why all the replacement stickers are in that 2000ish number range. It was a specific run of them. Is it possible the mint made an error and duplicated a number... Yes it is. Anything is possible. Is it possible that one of the stickers were tampered with.... Yes it is. I wouldn't chance it. Report this Post to the Staff
inward New Member Canada 25 Posts	Posted 08/15/2013 12:15 pm This one has 2 numbered holograms, http://www.ebay.com/itm/CANADA-2012...em43bea04087 I was looking at the RCM annual report, and it doesn't report the mintages for the special wrap pennies for some reason, they probably don't have an accurate #. They list the mintages for the special wrap 50c rolls though. http://www.mint.ca/store/dyn/PDFs/R...NG_FINAL.pdf Report this Post to the Staff

Petersun Pillar of the Community Canada 1700 Posts	Posted 08/15/2013 1:07 pm I wouldn't risk paying for those rolls at the price of a "bridge". 10 watchers already! Report this Post to the Staff
Ningcumpoop Valued Member Canada 220 Posts	Posted 08/15/2013 6:51 pm I believe the special wrap pennies mintage is included in the 2012 non magnetic. The mint had set aside a million or so for the special wrapping process. The mintage will be 1,000,000 no matter how many replacement rolls there are because it all comes out of the 2012 mintage figures anyways. I got this information from a friend who visited the mint during the last days of the penny and the mint worker spilled the beans.....or so he says......don't shoot the messenger Report this Post to the Staff

dialog_gvf Pillar of the Community Canada 1581 Posts	Posted 08/18/2013 09:54 am We already see a regular and replacement roll with the same number. This primes the "mistake" pump for all sorts of back-doors to trickle out. Given the insane prices realized, where are: 1111 - 9999 and 11111 1234 and 12345 4321 to 9876 You get the point. There are a lot of banknote numbers MIA. And all of the 20000+ rolls were snapped up by collectors and flippers. Edited by dialog_gvf 08/18/2013 09:57 am Report this Post to the Staff
