hand rolled halves.

i have been coin roll hunting for a year now. one of the banks i go to always has half dollar rolls and they are always hand wrapped. are the odds of good finds better with hand rolled?

It depends.... As long as they aren't someone's dumps I would say yes. I've had good luck with CWR over the years, but sometimes you just get a bunch of dumps. Good luck with it!

As I just said in another thread, I have very bad luck with CWR in my area because other CRH turn in rolled halves. Always buy the rolls though because you never know who raided grandpa's coins.

Unfortunately I don't think there is a way to increase your odds with CWR specifically. You could do a road trip and buy as many as possible but that is about it.

When I started collecting coins back in 06 I would always get rolls when I went into the bank. I was very lucky one time when the teller said they had some old halves and would I like those? I said yes, all of them. Ended up being 16 silver Franklin halves. Never hurts to ask.

Yes, as long as there is silver in them.

Some men rape chicks, I rape Handwrapped Half Rolls

In fact, I raped a whole $500 box of Handrolled Halves today...still in a Strings box. Always buy them all.
