In my teller station coin vault I have about 8-10 customer wrapped 1960(and only 1960) nearly flawless rolls of pennies. Do you guys think they are worth hanging on to? I wasn't sure if they are seen as worthless or what!

Thanks, Trevor.

Solid rolls of uncirculated pre-1982 copper are always a good buy at face value if you want to accumulate them as copper bullion. If the 1960 rolls have any D mintmarks, it is an even better buy because you can search them for the numerous RPMs.

Did you say face value copper? That's a definite! Maybe there will be some proofs in there

In 1960 they produced 2 versions, large and small date. The small date variety carries a premium.

Keep them for sure. The small date D mint coins carry little to no premium, but a 1960 small date is one of the more valuable date varieties of the 1959-2008 series, right after the 1970-S small date. Sounds like you have a real shot at getting a couple here, but it's always a win-win when you're buying at face value.

Thanks for the feedback all, I with I could have snagged them. But I am sure more will come around! You never know what will come through the bank!

Thanks friends, Trevor.
