People forget, morgans were never in rolls until later in life. They left the mints in burlap sacks. These cardboard rolls are from the late 40s and on. Regardless they are beautiful
Exactly. These were minted and then packed in 1,000 coin bags, stacked on pallets, thrown onto trucks, and then thrown into bank vaults. This is why "bag marks" are so common and a coin without as many marks commands such a large premium.
Guy named Corey who does auctions on hi bid manufacturers these particular rolls. He prints the name on the side and everything. He also used to make rolls that said a casino name on the roll aswell a Carson city bank name roll.
You are correct. The Mint never did put Morgan dollars in rolls and most banks did not either. Some regional banks did and several department stores such as Woolworths also put coins in rolls.
This you-tuber is illiterate! That's why educate, educate. Morgan dollars were never rolled! Someone rolled them up and gaped this poor guy! He paid too much, and I he doesn't have a clue!
@@daneng5015 the acidy of older paper was lower and typically the conditions on the exposed metal to various environments OUTSIDE the hard edge of the paper crimp gains oxidation. Older brown rolls made from papers without chemical whiteners tend to not oxidize or tone, the outer ring.
It was also typical to have only the couple of coins on the ends of the rolls gain any toning. Burlap bags also tended to make for some very interesting toning and patterns.
@@TheEducationalNumismatist dealt with unique wraps and bags.. including plastics.. ask do different toning. You got clean rolls there, but enders would have been interesting if exposed 😄
I wish I knew the answer to that. It may be that some stores received a lot of dollar coins and they would roll them so thery were easier to store and account for.
@@TheEducationalNumismatist interesting. Although I would think they would be rolled so the BANK would have an easier way to account for the coins before recirculating them. Still very cool.
Well done. Good score!
Thanks!

Ty for the video. Its funny cause im watching this on a sunday and mondays tomorrow
Glad you enjoyed the video. This one is a bit older, but I will be opening three new rolls from the Doylestown Hoard in the next week or so. :)
@TheEducationalNumismatist cool ty for letting me know
@TheEducationalNumismatist actually how much are the half dollar rolls worth?
Do you make a profit or some more money for how expensive they are.
@@RayEwald the half dollar rolls are gone unfortunately. They go for approximately $275.
That 84 CC made the video…damn she’s purdy.
That one ended up being a common GSA one later on
Yep, I was very pleased with that one.
Yes, 1884 is not one of the more scarce CC dates and the GSA hoard uncovered a bunch more of them.
@@TheEducationalNumismatist yeah 82, 83 and 84 are semi common
These are so nice and exciting. Wish i had one roll.
They are!
Beauties!!!
😎

Good information. Thank you very much.
Just the way he opened up the roll tells you they were probably opened before and put back in reverse order. The coins look polished!
About 40% of them were cleaned in some way.
These are manufactured by the people who sell them
Morgan Dollars were never put in rolls by banks or the us mint

I know they may have been rolled up in the 1960's
Funny how many of these rolls just appeared. Don't believe it's possible.
According to the story, they were hoarded by a watchmaker on Long Island. I do not buy the story, but that is what they say.
I have never seen anything like that Woolworth / Woolco
They are very cool and nostalgic. The fact they contain vintage silver dollars does not hurt either.
They look like they were cleaned, lots of nicks
8 out of the 20 were cleaned.
Where did you get these roles?!
A friend of a source I have used frequently/
Ebay
if they have been rolled for so long how come no toning from the paper???

Toning is dependent on several factors. Some include the amount of humidity, atmospheric conditions, paper, burlap, sunlight, etc.
It was also typical to have only the couple of coins on the ends of the rolls gain any toning. Burlap bags also tended to make for some very interesting toning and patterns.

@ this is true, but at the same time, part of the attraction was not knowing what was on either end
I'm wondering why Woolworths would roll coins like that. Was it someone's job to set aside silver dollars and roll them?
I wish I knew the answer to that. It may be that some stores received a lot of dollar coins and they would roll them so thery were easier to store and account for.
