Posted By: <b>dennis</b><p>topps 1 cent packs were not common back then(at least where i lived). i bought cards from the late 50s thru the mid 60s and always in 5 cent packs.never even knew they had 1 cent packs.

Posted By: <b>kg</b><p>thanks dennis--i forgot to mention that i was talking about the one cent wrapper in my thread, but u read my mind!! (the five cent version of the 1960 wrapper is much more common than its one cent counterpart)

Posted By: <b>Anthony N.</b><p>I've yet to see a '60 Topps penny pack in 5 years of looking. '60 Topps nickel packs might be the easiest of the era, no idea why pennies are so tough. '59's are pretty simple, '63 & '64 common as dirt, and '62 isn't that hard. '61 pops up every once and a while, but '60 is just not available it would seem. <br /> I'm looking for unopened packs, but would think that wrappers would mirror the availability.<br /><br />Dave- got your email, will catch up this week.
