rubeng New Member United States 22 Posts	Posted 07/15/2014 5:32 pm Are Wheat cent rolls more valuable unopened or opened? Should I disregard the packaging and satisfy my curiosity? I would much rather open them... Picture shows a 1929 roll, 1947 s roll, 1952 s roll, and two 1958 d uncirculated rolls. What would you do? Report this Post to the Staff

I personally would not have thought more than a second about opening them. Report this Post to the Staff

rubeng New Member United States 22 Posts	Posted 07/15/2014 6:39 pm I opened them, and found no 1909s vdb. But, many seem to be in really good shape. The years on the rolls did correspond to what was inside. Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff
