The halves sit at thecounting company getting mixed with other halves from other banks until they have a sufficient number to run a counting/boxing operation. Some companies have a clause in their contracts that does not allow them to sort the silver out. So, if a customer brings silver into a bank and the bank passes them through without checking for silver, some silver can get into the boxes of wrapped coins. It's mostly a matter of luck.
