Fresh paper, fresh rubber stamp then wire brushed to give the roll that "old" look. The sad part is that so many people can't see what is so obvious.

The shipping also made me laugh...

I would like to REALLY know the condition of the other coins in the roll.  |

Don't know as I have ever .... ever seen an authentic original roll of silver coins, where the end coins have not been heavily toned. From what I have read, coin roll wrappers, did not start to appear until the 1930's. Can anyone really believe that these coins have been sitting in a bank vault, drawer , hermetically sealed Michael Jackson bio-chamber for 80-90 years and have not a speck of toning. I can't leave my ASE's out of an Air-Tite for a month without them starting to "brown" |

The Seller knows EXACTLY what is in every roll he has listed, and sold.
After all, he put them together (or knows WHO put them together).

Again with this garbage! How can he list multiple mints in the description if he can only see one obverse?

$49 shipping charge and a 10% restocking fee if you return it. But returns are "hassle free". Geez, he makes money on this auction no matter what.

The "Bullion and Exchange Bank" was a scandal ridden enterprise, closed in 1903.
Fitting he chose that bank's name...

The only "unsearched" old rolls I trust in are the ones my parents still have from the 80's, straight from the bank, 100% guaranteed to not have been opened (since they're still where they put them 30 years ago). Might be nice things in them, who knows. All other "unsearched" rolls are too risky in my opinion. People get too caught up in hoping to find the "big one", and blow ridiculous money trying to score it.

What, no cc on the end? The cc is the sucker bait.

The color of the ink and the font style of the "$20" is different than those used for "The Bullion & Exchange Bank". This scammer is rather amateurish in his attention to detail. However I'm sure some ebay bidder blinded by $$$$$$ will fall victim. |

If this roll were legit, the ink/writing would barely be legible & the paper nearly be dust, would be massive toning visible - all dead giveaways here.

and could contain any number of 1800's era coins. He is saying they could contain anything so they could have any of these mintmarks. |

Keep it up edweather. I enjoy eating my popcorn and watching the clown circus.
Time's running out and it hasn't made reserve. Shill bidders to the rescue! Just like the clown firemen at a real circus!
Reserve should be somewhere around $400 for 2 unc commons and 18 culls. A real cc would help. The wrapper is not enough.

I think the shill in this case is 9***C (46 yellow star).
He has placed the last two bids. His last bid is most likely a few dollars below the reserve.
They are trying to set the hook but the fish hasn't bit yet.
Maybe people are getting smarter about this crap. (I doubt it!)
