Description
These coins have not been touched since 1958, they are completely unsearched. Ok, so I know that any penny collector has searched Ebay for shotgun rolls.  I have also purchased over 5000 rolls over the years.  If your like me, then you are tired of buying junk rolls.  I've spent hundreds of hours trying to find a batch of rolls that was worthy of calling them the best rolls on Ebay.  I listed batches of rolls in the past that people were very happy with.  Eventually I ran out of that batch of rolls and had to go look for more.  After hundreds of phone calls and a 700 mile drive.  I found a man in northern Oregon who had received a large inheritance of coins from his mother.  She was by no means a collector as much as a hoarder.  She worked at a bank for 25 years and in the early 1960's, she retired.  She hoarded as much coinage as she could stash away over a 40 year period.  The gold and silver she collected I was not interested in, but the wheats I could not pass up.  The batch totals just over 61,000 coins (about 1200 rolls).  About half of these coins were in 5000 count lead sealed bags that had the year 1958 printed on them.  The rest of the coins came in the old bank rolled penny wrappers that she had rolled herself.  I am confident that these coins were never searched.  The reason I dont think they were searched is the fact that when I opened the first bag, I looked through about 500 coins before I told the man I would buy them.  In my second hadfull I found a 1914D in XF condition, and in my third hanfull I found a 1931S in AU condition.  I looked through a few more handfulls and found many semi key dates, Indian head pennies, and BU coins.   As for the rolls that I opened, some of them did not have any wheats in them.  Many of them were solid rolls of Indian head pennies.As soon as I got home, I bought 2, 20 gallon tubs and dumped all of the coins together and mixed them up.  I also went out and bought a fancy coin counter/roller/crimper.  I assure you I do not have the time or the patience to go through these coins.  I dumped all of the coins through the machine and now have 1200 rolls ready to go. Each bid is for 10 rolls.The reason I am charging a premium price is because these rolls are loaded with Key Date Coins, Indian Head Pennies, and Semi-Key date coins.   When you find a key date - Please list it in the feedbacks.  Thanks for your time, and any questions are welcome.
