Roll By NF String & Son Wrapper ?

A quick searh on the internet reveals that they are based in Harrisburg, Pa. They sell wrapping supplies to financial institutions. So my guess is they could have been wrapped anywhere!

Good topic! Yeah, a large majority of the auctions on ebay for an "Unsearched OBW (Old Bank Wrapped) Shotgun Roll" are bull! A lot of these Sellers buy the coins in bulk (rolls, bags, buckets, cans, etc.) search them and roll the coins with their' own Coin Roll Wrapping Machine (or whatever you call it). It is funny when a Seller says that a OBW roll is Vintage or stored since the 40's or 50s's but the Wrapping Paper that they used was not made until the 80's or 90's. So many folks that buy on ebay, have no clue as to when the Wrapping Paper was produced and are easily duped into falling for the Seller's description. I think that there is actually a website dedicated to identifying and showing pictures of examples of all of the known Coin Wrapping Paper, who produced it and when it was produced.

I think you will find N.F. String sells machines and paper wrappers for others to wrap coins. I know they make coin wrapping machines because my machine shop makes parts for them. When the wrapper says N.F. String it does not mean it was wrapped by them.
