From an ebay auction: "You are bidding on one roll of ANACS certified MS-65 or better gem 2009 D Lincoln Log Cabin cents. This high grade certified roll has been ultra-sonically sealed and is preserved for years to come!" I have never heard of ANACS certifying an entire roll and sealing it in a round tube. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...260405115117

I know PCGS offers this service but did not know ANACS does. I don't submit rolls on a regular basis :-)

I don't see how an entire roll would grade at MS65 or better... Maybe they would grade MS or something. I have heard of certified rolls of quarters but I thought (PCGS) they just certified them as M...S

Quote: Does ANACS Really Do This? Yes they do and the HSN has sold thousands of these rolls. I wouldn't bet on all the coins grading 65 or better but it's a great marketing gimmick.

You can say that again. If one of those coins grades MS64

 How much does it cost to do this?

It looks to me like ANACS is assembling a roll by selecting coins from a number of rolls to make a "custom" roll in a sealed container.

As far as I can tell, the only benefit is a really long term payoff.
It is not for me though, having coins sealed up where I cannot fully enjoy them.

Quote: that label is pathetic. That is kinda why I asked the question. It looks like someone made it on their home computer using an return address label. You would think ANACS would do a better job with their graphics.

It's cheap if you submit millions of coins a year
