    I don’t open any of the rolls. All I can see are the enders. This is just a little side project of mine. I went all out with the mint roll boxes to put this set together. I have boxes for the next 2 years as well. I would venture to guess mostly 65 and 66 coins with the occasional 67 out of these rolls. Probably the same results from a fresh fed bank roll.

    The Gemological Institute has made it virtually impossible to sell or traffick in stolen diamonds or gems.  Automakers, gunmakers, airline manufacturers stamp or emboss their products in secret locations. The same mix of forensic scientific signatures can be used to conclusively determine the true provenance and all past and present owners of a coin.  It may not happen in our lifetimes, but it is the wave of the future.

    Hundreds of collectors crack coins ,That is why a true account  of coins would be imposable.

    General cold hard question:  Are collectors ethically obligated or otherwise duty-bound to return inserts of crack-outs to TPGSs, or has the census become too far askew in the years since to matter?
    Edit:  Introduced as a Topic.

    @Lem E I was looking at the census specifically for the 1943 S which had 0 in AU with FS. Hopefully that clarifies my statement.
