If you could pick 12 OBW rolls of cents from 1959-1984 which ones would you pick? Would you go for the high dollar varieties or years where there are a lot of varieties? The guy I like to buy from sells them to me for 29.99 per dozen delivered, I think this is a pretty good deal as these are all BU OBW.

Are you talking about cents?
If so, I would go for years with high dollar varieties because just looking for varieties for the 'fun of it' strains my eyes and hurts my head. If I'm going to go blind, at least I'd like to do it with the possibility of getting paid.

If I had a deal like that I would eventually buy them all. If your source is selling OBW rolls of 1972 cents for less than 3 bucks ...would you get me ten ?!?!?! There are alot of varieties and errors in most every year - like 1972 - and some years there were no mint sets (82-83) . I could go on and on but I'll leave that to coppercoins ! :) Sounds like a good deal to me if you can pick the dates, and those pure copper cents sure are purty !

1970S small date - around $50-$70 per coin.
Outside chance of 1970S small date doubled dies - in BU, sell for $100 per coin.
many 1970S large date minor doubled dies - $5-$10 per coin - decent chances.
two nice 1970S large date doubled dies, sell for $25-$50 per coin.
very outside chance of 1970S DDO#1, sells for $5,000-$25,000 per BU coin.
One decent RPM for 1970S, but usually found in mint sets...still available in rolls - $10 per coin.
And the rolls are cheap - $1.50-$2.00 each, and while many tubed rolls have been checked for small dates, there are two things to remember. 50% of all dealers can't tell the difference and wouldn't know one if it hit them, and there are still a number of doubled dies to find that almost nobody checks for.

And given a chance at a dozen proof sets from any date...1970S would still be my choice. Second choice would be 1964.
