Rummy13 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 I have the opportunity to buy 40 different us mint rolls of state quarters, at face value. I was just wondering if I should just to put them away in my collection. $400 is a lot to me so I don't want to just waste money. What do you people think?

Conder101 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 One are they really Mint rolls, or are they just bank rolls. If they are Mint rools the fact that someone paid about $18 apiece for them and today you can buy them for $10 should tell you something. If they are bank rolls the fact that almost ten years after the series ended you can get them for face value says something as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did it with my dad as a kid and now do it for something to pass forward some day. I have never sold a coin but have been very lucky in some things this year. 3 of the W Quarters and the S enhanced reverse silver eagle. I take advice and like they say read a lot. I don't spend much on anything as I am old and retired but the lady's at my bank always try to save things for me. That is where the rolls of state quarters come from. I think they are mint rolls from what I read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conder101 Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Yes that is a mint roll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paris-Coins Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Even if they were regular bank wrapped rolls you are losing nothing if you buy them at face value and put them up. It's not a bad idea to have a part of your collection in some very liquid assets, plus when it comes time to buy a coin you really want you will be ahead of the game.

That is kind of my thinking, I can always get my $10 a roll and maybe my LCD might give me a little more if I am buying some coins off him. Nothing to lose an they might be nice to pass a long. who knows what they could be worth in 50 years, LOL Crawtomatic and Paris-Coins 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
