question...

Matt Dinger · Advanced Member

here at the shop I have come across in the last few weeks a lot of unc rolls of wheats...... I have been going through them and finding bunches of rpm's....my question is what do I do with all these rpm's? is there someone (dealer/website) that buys rpm's in bulk at fair prices??? I have tried auctions with little fanfare.....just wondering what the heck am I going to do with hundreds of unc RPM's....thanks for any imput.....

I might be able to buy them depending on the turnout at the store. I might need them for restock in the relative near future.

just let me know, i have hundreds.....but the problem is that most of the rolls I search I find 1 or 2 rpm's on 15-20 coins....so i have lots of a few rpm's....I went through a roll of 59D's today and pulled out 10 1959D-1MM-005 all Red Unc's and something similar with a roll of 61's....

and this is the bag af 1952 D rpm's i have

just let me know what you want to do.....thanks again

Matt: I usually sort them and put them in 2X2 or coin tubes if I have a lot of them. I have used the 20 plastic holders to organize them in to 3 ring binders or use the boxes for storage of single ones organizing them according to Coppercoins numbers and making a list to trade with others on a Excel page. From my page I can see what I have in my collection, what I have extras of and in some cases the condition of coins to trade. Its up to you, but that is how I do it.

thanks coop i will prob do that with some tubes..., i am going to have do something with them......they are just sitting in bags right now.....

well i got a chance to sort them today..... I am the kind of guy that needs pictures....and the 1952 D page is missing a lot of pictures (not trying to be an butthead cause i know you guys are working your butts off on this site and in time it will come) but when those pictures get done it will be easier for me to identify them....i put them in tubes of split lower serrifs which i have a tube and a half of....and a tube of rotated MM's and a tube of some clear ones like the 1952-1MM-022 I pulled 4 of those out of there.....

i also discovered how much i hate trying to identify early 60's RPM's......there are just sooooo many of them

Thats why they call it a HOBBY. You couldn't afford to pay someone to to do this... LOL

i know what you are sayin there......i had 2 1960 D rpm's i had to try to identify and it took me an hour to decide that it was one of 8 that looked very similar.....and didn't have the die markers for any of them....lol!

Matt...I have started adding the 1952D RPMs to the site. Any blank slots on the site from MM001 thru MM016 that are still there, I do not have the coin for. In addition, most of the additions are circ examples. I still have more to go through, but I am beginning to fill in the blanks. Keep watching the site for more additions.

awesome bob.....that helped a lot, I now know that I have about 60 1952D-1MM-012's nice to discover you have 60 $4-$7 coins (bet the market for those just took a drop.....lol)

Matt Dinger · Advanced Member

i have some that might need pictures taken of them....for the site....just let me know if you want me to send a bunch of coins in.....i have some uncs of the ones listed without unc pictures..... i can send 1 of each on the ones i have and you can take a look at them...let me know

I have found 2 exampiles that may be new to the files....there is a shifted repunch and then moderate southeast spread on what looks like a third D.....and i noticed there are none with a southeast spread....

Everything else sounds good Matt, but I still have others to go through and add to the site before I can take new additions. So far, I have used the coins from my personal collection. Now the fun part starts, and that's going through 2 rolls of 1952D RPMs that I have not attributed yet. I know for a fact that I will be adding at least 3 new RPMs to the site...possibly more. Just hang in there a bit longer and we will see where I end up at. Then you can send any to me that are either better coins than those photographed, or any new additions or updates. OK??

Matt Dinger · Advanced Member

not a problem they aren't going anywhere...and i look foreward to seeing what you have to add.....
