Message:: [QUOTE="LostDutchman, post: 920905, member: 16994"]They do wrap and roll the circulating change but the stuff that comes from the FED is already rolled and boxed. No they do not search them for silver. They don't have time. They just count and wrap them back up for delivery. The guys in the trucks aren't allowed to buy anything off the truck. My friend had to watch a bag of $250 in silver quarters be delivered to a bank recently because it was already paid for by the bank. I tried to get to the bank after he called me about it but it was either already spoken for or sold by the time I got there. Exchanging out money is a big no no.   I think the FED sells them the change at face and then they charge a small delivery and handling fee, but I could be wrong about that one. I'll ask my buddy next time I see him. I think they take the stuff the banks deposit with them and re wrap, count, and re roll it.  Not from the armored carriers or bank warehouses. They process so much change that there is no time for anyone to do it. It comes from coin dealers and B & M coin shops. I personally probably buy a $1k-$2k a week in 90%. [/QUOTE]
