Condition:
As rolled, pictured and described. While I endeavor to remove or make note of the ones in poor condition, an occasional elongate with a carbon spot or two cannot be ruled out. Most of the backs were coated with shoe polish to preserve the actual obverse of the coin, but once in a while, an elongated with a blank back fell into the hopper.
About my elongated coin offerings:
I am not a "roller", I do not sell re-rolls. These are from a collection I purchased from the family of a former TEC president. They are original vintage coins rolled many years ago by the original designer, (sometimes engraver), and roller. Many of these rollers were Charter members of The Elongated Collectors (TEC) originally formed in 1966. Most of these members no longer produced elongated issues after 1991. Most of their dies are closed and canceled. When these are gone they are gone forever.
Postage and Handling:
50 Cents
within the USA and APO addresses
The post office went up another nickel on my mailings. A first class letter now costs me 75 cents postage, 5 cents for the envelope, 10 cents for my printed matter and another 5 cents to eBay for the postage part. Total 95 cents. 40 cents more than when I started charging 25 cents. I either have to increase the elongate cost or the postage.
Item(s) are normally sent by first class US mail.
PAYMENT:
Payment by PayPal is gladly accepted.
