I went to the bank today and honestly i had one of those moments that you just want to kill yourself because you weren't there...the bankers told me like 2 weeks ago a lady came with a bag of $100 of silver coins. They told me they gave it all out to people requesting for coins and i just ****ed myself because i usually go to that bank but never really had a conversation with the bankers till now. I feel so ****ed right now but i gave out my number to them so hopefully they call me when another good offer comes up and ordered 2 boxes of halves.

Has anyone ever tried to buy the coins out of the coinstar machines? My bank said that when the quarter bags are full they would let me buy the bag(about $1,000.00 in a full bag).

 

I think I've asked every bank with a machine within 100 miles and they've all said no

 

my bank has already said they would do it....will be picking up a bag friday. i wonder if there might be more silver in these bags??

 

My bank does the same.. I have had OK luck with Halves.. Better with Lincolns.. Lots-o-Wheat.. I cost nothing to search but time.. Getting them back into the bank can be a pain... I have 3 accounts at 3 Banks.. I rotate... It works.

 

Out of two boxes of half dollars I found
1944 walker
3 40% silver
1 1970 D
several BU 80's
and a 1992-S proof I needed for my book
:apu:

 

Stopped at a bank and the teller said a customer brought in $2000 worth of halves, and they sent them off.....I wish I could have seen if they were search or not....

I did do one box this week. One 40%er and one 1964.

ho hum

 

1 box of dimes

1941 mercury and 1959 roosevelt not bad

 

i get more wheats up here in canada then i do old pre 60 candian coins. its pretty funny actually. pulled a 59 that was still shinin abit. pretty good for canadian rolls!

 

This little goody popped out of a roll I cracked open this morning

 

If I went to that bank I would of ended up buying those halves if they still had them.

 

$300.00 in dimes yielded (1) 1963 and (1) 1964. Getting 100 rolls of 1/2 dollars next week.

 

Kind of irked today, I went to my bank to place an order for halves, and the teller said she had a half, then went and asked the other tellers if they had any. One girl had 2 of them, and another teller beside her reached in and took one, saying I want this one. Of course, it was a silver one.

 

Bob, which bank was this? I am just curious because I have found that a few of the Well's Fargos do not hold half dollars. As soon as they get a roll or more, they send them back to the fed.

Another box of halves and again no silver. I did find 4 NIFC and a 1972 proof.

 

Another box of cents down, didnt really find anything but a '64 DDR, I think. Im not the best at looking at this stuff, but it does match the pics in the Cherrypickers guide.

 

In the last week I have found one 1962 Ben Franklin, two 66 and one 69 half, a 1945 Mercury dime, one 1962 Roosevelt dime, and ten wheat pennies. I just started looking last week.

 

another box of halves..nothing :\ 3rd box skunk in a row did get a 2004 though..anyone knows if all banks get the money from same place? seems since i change my bank ordering to another bank i have stopped getting silver ever since. Do all orders from bank same Reserve?

 

Erin, it was a Chase bank on the north side of town.

Found 4 40%ers in a box yesterday.

HOW ABOUT THAT SILVER PRICE!!!!! Wow. I may have to sell some silver.

And several more of you have sound Mercs............I have never found one in my life and I am quite jealous......
