Last State Restricted JFK Silver Bank Rolls go to Colorado residents

Colorado residents get first dibs on last remaining Bank Rolls loaded with U.S. Gov’t issued Silver JFK’S dating back to the mid 1900’s some worth up to 60 times their face value for just the $19 minimum set for state residents - non state residents must

-

COLORADO - “It’s a miracle these State Restricted Bank Rolls even exist. That’s why Hotline Operators are bracing for the flood of calls,” said Laura Lynne, U.S. Coin and Currency Director for the National Mint and Treasury.

For the next 2 days the last remaining State of Colorado Restricted Bank Rolls loaded with rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued Silver JFK’S are actually being handed over to Colorado residents who call the State Toll-free Hotlines listed in today’s newspaper publicatio­n.

And here’s the best part. If you are a resident of the state of Colorado you cover only the $19 per coin state minimum set by the private National Mint and Treasury, that’s twenty rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued Silver clad JFK half dollars worth up to 60 times their face value for just $380 which is a real steal because non state residents must pay $57 per coin which totals $1,140 if any coins remain after the 2-day deadline.

“Recently National Mint spoke with a retired Treasurer of the United States of America who said ‘In all my years as Treasurer I’ve only ever seen a handful of these rarely seen Silver JFK’S issued by the U.S. Gov’t over 50 years ago. But to actually find them sealed away in State Restricted Bank Rolls is like finding buried treasure. So anyone lucky enough to get their hands on these Bank Rolls had better hold on to them,’” Lynne said.

“Now that the State of Colorado Restricted Bank Rolls are being offered up we won’t be surprised if thousands of Colorado residents claim the maximum limit allowed of 6 Bank Rolls per resident before they’re all gone,” said Lynne.

“That’s because after the Bank Rolls were loaded with 20 rarely seen JFK’S, each verified to meet our minimum collector grade of very good or above, the dates and mint marks of the U.S. Gov’t issued Silver clad JFK Half Dollars sealed away inside the State of Colorado Restricted Bank Rolls have never been searched. But, we do know that these coins date back to the mid 1900’s and some are worth up to 60 times their face value, so there is no telling what Colorado residents will find until they sort through all the coins,” Lynne went on to say.

The only thing Colorado residents need to do is call the State Toll-free Hotlines printed in today’s newspaper publicatio­n before the 2-day order deadline ends.

“Rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued silver coins like these are highly sought after, but we’ve never seen anything like this before. According to The Official Red Book, a Guide Book of United States Coins many Silver JFK Half Dollars have nearly doubled in collector value in just the last several years,” Lynne said.

“So just imagine how much these last remaining, unsearched State of Colorado Restricted Bank Rolls could be worth someday. Remember, these are not ordinary coins – these rarely seen coins are at least 50 years old. In fact, these coins have been forever retired by the U.S. Gov’t, and you can only get them rolled this way directly from the National Mint and Treasury because these are the only State Restricted Bank Rolls known to exist,” said Lynne.

“We’re guessing thousands of Colorado residents will be taking the maximum limit of 6 Bank Rolls because they make such amazing gifts for any occasion for children, parents, grandparen­ts, friends and loved ones,” Lynne continued.

“We know the phones will be ringing off the hook. That’s why hundreds of Hotline Operators are standing by to answer the phones beginning at 8:30am this morning. We’re going to do our best, but with just 2 days to answer all the calls it won’t be easy. So make sure to tell everyone to keep calling if all operators are busy. We’ll do our best to answer them all,” Lynne said.

“That’s why the private National Mint and Treasury set up the State Toll-free Hotlines in order to make sure Colorado residents get the State Restricted Bank Rolls before they’re all gone,” she said.

The only thing readers of today’s newspaper publicatio­n need to do is make sure they are a resident of the state of Colorado and call the State Tollfree Hotlines before the 2-day deadline

ends midnight tomorrow.
