looking at feedback/items for sale and what is written it looks like a legitimate hoard sale to me

Thanks for the heads up mate. I like anything a bit out of the ordinary. Hope I didn't pay too much!
As we age we lose three things, one is our memory and arrrrr I've forgotten the other two!

Quoteall the coins from this roll have some toning
I wonder if this means he had a full roll of no SD?
Thinking is dangerous, it makes you think. That\'s why many people avoid it.

serial

if it is a genuine mint roll no sd then I would say you got a massive bargain. I got one myself and I will be getting it graded

serial

does anyone here have a pcgs graded example of one of these I could compare my coins to?

I have a 1968 coin graded by PCGS at MS64RB
That you can use as a comparison :ok:

ok so I thought I would just take pics and ask for opinions.
so do you think these are worth grading?
what do you think they will get?
how much do you think they are worth?

This is a 1968 version of it - also MS64



Just remembered that I had a 1967 version in the same grade - MS64RB

Nice coin. Do you mind me asking how much the cost/are worth?

WavyTwenty

Sure you can ask.

The 1967 one I brought for $13 dollars from a dealer in 2006.  I asked to look at a bunch of 2 cent coins and he gave me a tray to sift through.  So I did and I picked out that one and a 1968 XF45BN for $3.  I think I was pretty lucky with that - particularly with the 1967 one - saved me a lot to get one.  Not so much money, but time.  I have found that it is difficult to find them in good quality at all.

The 1968 one I brought from a deal for a bunch of money.  To this day I don't know if I got a good deal or a bad one - but I really wanted one and he had it available. I trust him to look after me - he hasn't let me down so far so I'll continue to trust him (he frequents this forum, wont mention his name unless he pipes up).  My only regret is not having a RD one - although the '68 one almost is. I paid just over $1,100. I got that one in 2012.

I also have a '81 MS63RB to complete my no SD collection that I brought from a forum member in 2006.  I paid $50 for it back then.

I would love to know what the going price of them are.

I am hoping the 2nd one down makes RD. the strike on the head is just so soft!
what is the strike like on the other side of yours?

WavyTwenty

I can't remember what it looks like - I'll try to get hold of them again and take another picture.

Your coins look great - there may indeed be a RD amongst them.

I am waiting for 30 mint roll 68 1 cents coins to arrive then I will be sending them of to the plastic factory
