<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 548681, member: 4552"]You hit it on the head. This is what I've been told at the banks I do buisness with. 4 of the 5 banks I have some type of accounts with tell me the same thing. Bank of America in my area has this new LAW that they will not order any coins for anyone except buisnesses and then there is a charge for that service. Further more if you bring in change, any amount, it is put into a plastic bag, shipped out for counting, the results are entered into your account minus the charge for that service. 4 of those 5 banks have eleminate coin counting machines completely. One still has a machine and they told me when it breaks down, out it goes and they then must follow all other banks in the area. </p><p>Bank of America tells me they will no longer order, nor carry half dollars or $2 bills. All such coins as halves have been removed from any local bank vaults and sent out. And as I said they will order coins for you if you have a buisness that requires coins and you must have proof of that. And there is that charge regardless of your accounts, buisness with them, etc. </p><p>Oddly enough many of them have those baby sized dollars on the tellers counter and they usually ask me if I want them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
