MtnCoinMan Valued Member United States 462 Posts	Posted 01/07/2009 11:38 am I am still in the process of re-organizing my fathers one cent collection. Mostly wheats for several rolls of mems. So my question is, do you roll memorial cents? Going through bank rolls, I am separating out the 1982 and before from the 1982 and newer. I have just been throwing the 60s, 70s and early 80s into a jar. Should I be rolling them by year? My father has about 10 rolls of pristine 1964D cents. I am sure they would grade somewhere in the 60 range. I am sure the value of them is mostly bullion, being 95 percent copper. So should they be stored in rolls or is a jar just fine?

morgantype Valued Member United States 164 Posts	Posted 01/07/2009 12:00 pm I think it all depends on your purpose. If you are keeping the coppers strictly for bullion just throw them in a jar or bag. If it was me that is what I would do, but I would pull out the pristine coppers and roll those babies up as you never know how the demand will change in the future. Report this Post to the Staff

I highly recommed some coin tubes too. Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff

Some of the older, clear round tubes are not safe for long term storage and are easily cracked and broken. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff
