The never questioned me and I never asked. Well............thats not entirely true as I did ask once. Thats when I found out that this freindly bank was simply putting my boxes and boxes of half dollars in their vault. They had about $6,000 worth.</p><p><br /></p><p>I then moved to another branch of the same bank. These folks had a coin counter which was really cool for me because I no longer had to re-roll my halfs (like I&#039;d been doing for the other branch.)</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;d order a couple thorusand dollars worth, search through them, bags em up and head off to the bank.</p><p><br /></p><p>After about $7,000 worth, I got a call from the Vice President of the bank asking me to no longer bring in the half dollars since &quot;their&quot; vault was filling up.</p><p><br /></p><p>I complied and moved elsewhere. Actually, I got tired of the hunt and simply stopped ordering boxes of halfs.</p><p><br /></p><p>I offered to pay them for the shipping, but as friendly a relationship I had with them, they simply were not equipped to handle that &quot;type&quot; of billing.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now I&#039;m in a different State and have an order bank and a dump bank. I&#039;ve dumped all kinds of stuff at the dump bank with never a question.</p><p><br /></p><p>Coin Roll hunting must be done with the understanding that the &quot;Bank&quot; is under no obligation to special order coins for you and the only way a bank will undertake this overhead rich service is if you have &quot;thousands&quot; on account. IF you don&#039;t, then you&#039;re simply an &quot;expensive&quot; customer that they can do without as the OP has discovered.</p><p><br /></p><p>No biggie, just shop for another bank.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
