What to do now? I picked these up yesterday locally. All the heads are 2009 P mint which is normal for Virginia. All the Tails are LP3 with the exception of one. Hmmmmmmmm.  . Open one roll or all rolls. Can you imagine receiving one of these in the mail only to open it and find 48 browns. YIPES!   |

Open, open, open!  I do not like seeing coins trapped in rolls! Says the guy with three shotgun rolls from the 60's sitting on his desk. Should I open those or not!  |

The rolls, like small cardboard holders, damage coins. I recommend
taking them out and putting them in plastic coin bottles.

Well, I hope they sneak a doubled die 1972 in my rolls! Weird. How are you finding the others? Nicky and Baggy Uncs? Or are they all GEM BU MS70's? Edited by TNG

I found 4 keepers, maybe ms64/65 but still spotted only minimally. The rest were nicked and scratched a bit. How far do these coins fall to reach the bin? 40 feet maybe!! nlp

As I was reading this all I could think of is he really going to get all those old coins in new condition? It could happen. WOW, you never know.
