    Got a box of halves and in the very first roll I opened I found a 1944d liberty (my first). Half way through now and also found a '66 and '67.

    Good luck in Philly. Stopped at TD bank on the way home, they wouldn't give me anything, lied to me.

    As reprisal, I'm cleaning them out of every last cent they have tomorrow. Gonna take the boxes over to the penny arcade, and bust 'em out right there and go through it all.

    Did you order them? Sometimes I get lucky with them sometimes I strike out, but between them and Wells Fargo I have plenty of dimes and nickel pickup joints.

    They've never had a problem with it before. I think she just didn't wanna inconvenience the 5 people behind me... just cause some stupid lady came in and deposited a ton of small bills in front of me. A ton! Took the lone teller working up there about 10 minutes to count it. After that, I walk up, she just says "Oh, the vault is closed." I knew it wasn't (You can see the door, and the vault is never closed due to necessary SDB access), but it's not like I had anybody else to appeal to, so I just straight up said "That's bullsh- and I'll be here tomorrow to let your manager know." Turned around, walked out the door. Wasted 15 minutes of my time in that line to be helped, and they can't even give me 5 minutes to run into the vault and get it? Screw them. They're getting it tomorrow.

    5 cwr's of halves... nothing. Picked up 16 ikes 15 of which are real nice. I also picked up a free barber quarter 1898. A local coin shop had a mailer with a coupon on it :)

    2 boxes of halves

    1st box: 1 40%
    2nd box: 9 40%

    The head teller forgot to order my boxes last week, so i was pretty pumped about that second box.

    2 boxes of halves

    Box 1 : Blanks
    Box 2 : 1 40% & 2 NIFC.

    Then was at bank cashing in and the machine broke (still has some of my halves stuck inside). Was also able to convince the teller that two of my halves had morphed into the 2 IKES that were sitting in the PVC reject bin and she gave me them. This is the first I have seen of this bin, although getting to it is tricky to get into with them standing there.

    Do you all have better luck with customer or bank/Brinks wrapped rolls?

    I don't usually go through rolls very often. I don't really know what to look for and it can be a little disheartening when you don't find anything. Anyways, I got some nickels, cents and kennedy 1/2s last week. I found 4 wheat pennies (one 1937 AU-my oldest find yet) and a foreign coin that is worth like $.50 or something. It's neat and has some cool toning even if it is pretty worn. I also found a dime in a penny roll so there's that. I didn't find any silver war nickels only one really nice 1960 something nickel. I didn't find any silver kennedy's either, which ones are 40% silver?

    Skunked on my last 2 boxes of dimes. Silver dimes in the wild here in AZ are becoming very endangered.:(
