<p>[QUOTE=&quot;stldanceartist, post: 1208251, member: 13307&quot;]So, I received my weekly order of two half dollar boxes from a local bank near my parents&#039; house (college grad student, home for the summer.)&nbsp; When I opened the boxes, I noticed that most of the rolls were wrapped in Brinks&#039; half dollar wraps (mostly white with gold colored text) but a few were wrapped in dollar wraps (mostly white with silver colored text.)&nbsp; I thought, that&#039;s odd...I wonder why that happened?&nbsp; So I opened a roll of the silver wrapped coins...and pulled out a 1969 40% half!</p><p><br /></p><p>Well, now my curiosity was piqued...so I opened the next silver wrapped roll...and pulled out a 1965.&nbsp; The next one yielded a heavily polished 1945 Walking Liberty.&nbsp; The fourth and final roll...1967.&nbsp; The four rolls that were wrapped in dollar wraps each handed me a silver half.&nbsp; The other 96 rolls?&nbsp; Diddly (in terms of silver.)&nbsp; Has anyone else noticed this happening?&nbsp; I&#039;m tempted to order another couple boxes...but this is the first time I&#039;ve seen odd wrappers...and my dump bank here in the STL area decided to, out of the blue, lecture me for bringing in $500 bags of half dollars.&nbsp; (I was shocked...I&#039;ve always been extremely friendly, patient, and followed every guideline they&#039;ve laid out.&nbsp; As I was depositing the proceeds, a woman who turned out to be the branch manager leans over the teller&#039;s shoulder and states in a very annoyed and angry voice, &quot;It&#039;s too much.&nbsp; You can&#039;t bring coins in like that - if you bring coins in any more we&#039;re going to have to ship them away to be counted.&nbsp; That coin counter is meant for people with piggy banks!&quot;)</p><p><br /></p><p>So I don&#039;t have a dump bank here in STL any more...but I just thought I&#039;d throw it out there to see if anyone else had similar luck?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
