coincollector123 Pillar of the Community United States 850 Posts	Posted 01/20/2011 8:16 pm It was luck. I was looking for halves and the teller next to me pulls out a colorful roll of quarters and asked another teller if she should break these. I told her that those are mint rolls and they usually cost $35 for a set of p and d. So I asked if she had anymore and she pulls three more from the safety box. Report this Post to the Staff

The shrink wrapped rolls are Brinks rolls I believe. They are not mint rolls and are not always all unc coins either, they can be but they not always are. Brinks does coins from large Fed banks also.

coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 01/25/2011 10:02 am "Mint Rolls" have writing on the paper that specifies they are straight from the mint. They are a marketing ploy by the mint to profit from normal coins, and it works very well. Many every year are suckered into paying the Mint a HUGE profit for what they should be getting from their bank at face value. There is no difference at all between the "mint wrapped" rolls and the "normal" rolls your bank gets except the wrapping paper. Report this Post to the Staff
