1982 Constitution Rolls have the Winged Wheel Brinks Logo printed right into the Black white and Red rolls . Brinks has operated in Canada starting in Montreal QC in 1927.

No argument that Brink's armoured tramsportation service has been around for a long time. They were licensed to carry weapons whereby bankers certainly weren't so they played a huge role in preventing robbery in the transportation of cash. My uncertainty is what period of time in Canada did Brinks take on the task of releasing mint coin and currency to the general public?

have 2 rolls of the 1984 Cartier Nickel Dollars
but they say " Canadian Mint" on them.
Would these be wrapped by the mint?


That's really cool! Sure looks like they were wrapped and sold by the mint, if not the Bank of Canada. The reason I'd guess it could've been distributed by the BofC is in 1967 my father ordered five Centennial $1 banknotes directly from them. I still have the original mailed envelope with the filled BofC requisition.

Aside from that, paper disintegrates over time and therefore it would be natural for original mint roll collectors to have repackaged mint rolls solely for the sake of preservation, making the search for what is unsearched even more difficult at this point in time. Unless a buyer knows that a seller has owned the rolls ever since the coin was minted, I think that all makes the success rate of attempting to buy "unsearched" mint rolls on the secondary market to be very low.


I'm not sure I agree with that. I'm fortunate to operate a store in an area where these can be relatively common. Albeit not a daily occurrence, late 50's/60s silver rolls do surface from time to time with early 60's nickel rolls being VERY common. Mint sets even more so. I've seen boxes and boxes of 63-67 sets still sealed in mint "50 pack" boxes come through the door. Not unlike the coin rolls, these were just hoarded by individuals and not necessarily bought as collectibles and is one of the reasons why they are not picked through.

Not bad at all CoinHunter. I don't even know what original 60s rolls sell for these days, but I'm guessing that with that many 65s and 65HC you are doing far better than selling a roll?
