I just hunted a full box of halves and spread throughout in various rolls I found these. Does this mean this entire box came from one person? How does that happen?
Well I’m assuming to mark it but I’m just wondering how I ended it up with a whole box of em I though they would be more spread out when they roll em at the fed or what ever. Needless to say there was no silver. They have one more box for me at the bank ordered at the same time now I’m hesitant to get it.
To know if you are getting your dumps back. Searchers use their marks to track coins through the system to see if they come back/how long it takes/etc.
I would get the box. You ordered it. If you don't pick it up just because it may have been searched, you run the risk of burning that bridge and them not ordering for you any more.
Well yeah I’m going to get it, however I only ordered one they only told me afterwards that they have to order a minimum of two boxes so I said I’d grab the other one.
Obviously they're a wanker who developed a system that only they know about! That said, when going through boxes looking for silver you gotta take the bad with the good! Hopefully next time, we see the good!
They are marking their coins to see if they will circulate back to them. I don’t do it but it does make sense. If they are getting their own marked coins, that means they are searching coins they already searched.
Never leave a bank with a box of coins! You don’t want them to hold onto it for nothing! Always be nice to the tellers.
I’ve marked several thousand dollars in halves to see if any of mine returned home. Not once in 6 years have I seen one. I wonder where they have ended up. If anyone ever sees one marked “FF” let me know
Do you use BoA? In my area of Florida, BoA has their own repository for filling orders for the branch banks. All change goes through the repository and the only time that they rely on the Fed is when their supply runs low. This would be understandable for pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters but half dollars are practically never distributed to commercial businesses. I learned this about 15 years ago when I was ordering two boxes of half dollars every week. ~ Chris
with FF and the others. This whole CRH thing is completely random. Your next box could be a major winner!
Black marker, Furryfrog? I've had 2 FF's here in the great State of Wisconsin over the past year. I figured it was some Fred Flintstone fan. I've had a handful of "TA"'s too.
Either black or green. I haven’t done any in a couple years. I am in MD so that is a good little travel.
Wish I still had them, Furryfrog. It would be kind of neat to have your autograph on a coin. Who knows.......it might fetch quite a price one day.
If I were you when I rewrap the coins to take back to the bank, I'd write 1964 on one wrapper, maybe 1962 on another. Get the guy's hopes up when he asks for customer rolls.
