Well another day of limited success....

Box of Halves - Skunk
Box 1 of Dimes - Skunk
Box 2 of Dimes - 2 Silver Rosies

It's not a shutout, so I'll take it. However, I need another good box of Halves. This is getting ridiculous. My ordered halves have not produced more than 1 coin a box and those are typically after 3-4 skunks in a row. Come on already!

In my Pnc coin counter, I keep on finding screws and nails. I still no idea how they get there.

 

I keep thinking about dumping halves at PNC, but there's none that are really convenient like TD is for me.

 

My PNC is the only bank around me that has a coin counter or anything like that and luckily enough I have two within five minutes of my house.

 

Theres a PNC about 1 min from my house, but I don't think they have a coin counter.


Also...

The results of my 2 boxes of pennies:
30 Wheats - oldest being a '26
AU '59
A few AU in the 60's and 70's with D and S mints...filled a couple spots of my folder
1975 Roosevelt Dime
anddddd

My first 2000 WAM ! YAY lol

 

Nice find on the WAM. Getting a bit tougher to find, at least for me.

 

I put all the possible WAMs aside and went through them when I was done the boxes. I probably had a few hundred and of course the WAM was like 3rd one I checked lol

 

I remember my first WAM... At the time, I didn't search for WAM's besides the '99 and of course the CAM's. So I am going through a box, must have flipped over like twenty or thirty '92's and '99's, and I spot a nice, red BU '99. Look at it for about a second, briefly debate not checking for WAM's or CAM's any more because I never find any, and I flip it over any way... bam, BU '99 WAM. Flipped over everything after that, eh? Haha.

 

haha I've been checking for them for a while...and I did almost decide to stop checking or putting them aside when I saw how many
I had...good thing I didn't I coulda missed out haha

 

Searched $540 in halves and got skunked, I'm of tomorrow, I might open a new account and take a mini road trip. We'll see

I haven't heard of this happening yet but at $1000 worth of coins they may pull this on you:

"And, if you have an unusually large amount of coins, just drop them off
during lobby hours and your account will be credited within 5 business days."

Just pulled 5 '64s, 5 40%s, and a 1961 Franklin, a very satisfying box.

 

I use a PNC as my dump bank here in Illinois. If the coin counter near Brad in OH is like the one near me, it is a top of the line, digital, very user friendly counter.

Let me throw this to the group for thoughts, as I am out of ideas:

I usually dump at the PNC near me on Saturdays, and bring donuts to the staff (have been for a while), and am pretty friendly with them. In that inside reject container, there are 5 Ikes. I have seen them a couple of times, but don't know their dates or types, which makes them all the more enticing. I have been trying to buy them for about 4 months now. The employees have told me that they can't sell them to me, as they have no way to account for the 5 dollars.

I mean - they.are.just.sitting.there! I have offered a 5 dollar bill for them to put in the container, in place of the Ikes. I've offerred different coins to replace them with, they won't sell them to me, as they seem to be stuck on the accounting for 5 dollars issue.

Does anyone have any ideas? It drives me insane that those sweet, sweet Ikes are just sitting there homeless, waiting for someone to take them home and love them!

 

I stopped by one of my favorite banks and they had 78 Ike dollars. I searched them and found a 1972 Type 3, 1976-D Type 1, an AU 1977, and what looks like a 1972 Type 2, which when I get the money I will send in for grading.

 

3 roosies from a box

 

There are just coins sitting in the reject bin in the coin counter. If so, you might as well just take them, but make sure no one is looking.

 

Brad,

I hear ya. The problem is these aren't in the regular reject bin. They are inside the machine itself. There is a plastic container that looks like an overflow for large coins (like Ikes) - other stuff goes in the reject bin

A bank employee has to open the machine and reach inside to get the container out.

It is driving me crazy!

 

Easy solution... Insist they're yours. They can't disprove it...Getting a couple boxes on the way home tonight, usual bank had nothing to spare and the manager was quite happy to buy my sealed box of 2011 dimes.
