<p>[QUOTE="Darchangel, post: 1469287, member: 37158"]BofA folks: I recently found out that my regular branch where I get halves switched from Brinks to Dunbar for their coin. Not having or hearing any good results from the S&S wrapped coins, I decided to ask another local branch if they'd set up a regular order for me. After all the times I called that branch and they tried to convince me, I walked in today to see about working some arrangments. They told me that they no longer take coin orders and referred me to the US Treasury website. I spoke to the greeter about it and she said some sort of email came down from the powers that be 3 weeks ago stating they've had too many problems with people ordering coins since they're really supposed to be for <i>business customers</i> and taking the silver to make money off of it. She then said "oh but you were just a collector right?" I just agreed. She said ya, it sucks, gave me an <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />, "it's just another way for them to be <i><b>in control</b></i>."
