I have collected a few for face value. They look pretty etc., but seriously, what do you guys do with your rolls? Do you break them up and try to find the nicer coins? Do you have them graded and collect/sell them? Or do you just leave them be. The problem is that I don't really want to break them up, specially the special wrapped 50c piece rolls, but then again I can't enjoy them if I don't...

May depend on your age.... I'm pretty young in this hobby... each year I have bought a few rolls of each denomination from the mint. And as I CRH I cherry pick the very best ones and eventually make rolls from those. I also have a couple empty monster boxes from silver rounds that I have bought and sold in the past. I usually end up putting the rolls in the monster boxes as they're great storage containers and stack pretty well and are out of the way...

I have individual coins in binders in 2x2's but the rolls are put away and hopefully when I get a bit older I will go over them with my kids.. maybe sell a few and buy something really nice.. or just keep 'em I dunno...

The paper wrapped ones with special design are better to kept as roll.

Realy wandering......I was also going to ask this question....I bought last years special wrap roll, and even then I said when I get 2014's 50c I will open both and sell in pairs at my monthly coin club meeting....maybe not now,,,explain....last year I paid lots just for shipping--so need some price for each just to break even..or am I dreaming?

Thanks! Some of my plastic wrapped rolls are failing anyway; I see tear marks on even some of the new ones from 2013 (arctic exp. etc). I think I will have to open them up.

I will probably leave the paper wrapped ones, in particular the last million cents from 2012 untouched. But I would appreciate if you can suggest tubes for these (i.e. for the above plus for the 50c piece rolls).
