I don't know if this was true or not, but I get a sealed box of halves every week from my bank and most weeks I get 2-3 40% sometimes 6-7 sometimes 1 and last week I got 2 1964 kennedys.

I think if your bank gives you the clear plastic wrappers your best bet is to order whole boxes so at least you take the tellers out of the cherrypicking equation.</p><p> Keep at it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
