I can't believe this. I am on a business trip and on the way I stopped at a town and picked up a box of halves. Just opened the box and it was short one whole role. No way the bank will believe me.

 

Two boxes halves: three 40% (1-1966, 1-1967, 1-1969); two NIFC. And I received a Susan B. Anthony dollar coin. So +50c on this box!

 

Once I got around $250 CWR Halves from a bank and in it was a $25 roll of small dollars that I paid $10 for. Didn't know what to do, but they counted it as halves.

 

My last dump in the machine of $190 in half was counted as 189.61. I told the tell that it was miscounting but since it was not that far off I did not push it

 

Let it go. $10 is not worth upsetting the apple cart for the local CRHers.

I truly believe it all eventually works out based on the law of averages. You will win some and you will lose some, but overall you'll break even wrt getting extra versus being shorted. My last coin bag deposit resulted in the coin vault crediting my account an extra $50. There was no way to correct it via my bank, but I'm okay with it because of the law of averages.

 

...and keep in mind we're scoring silver at face value.

 

2 boxes of halves: I got a gold plated 1960 to 1980 stamped coin. Last week I got the silver one. Too bad it's worth only 50cents. Other than that nothing. I got 3 more boxes of halves coming in this week. Hopefully my luck will turn. Not having any luck with getting CWR. Loomis rolls are all I can find. Even the small banks are going with them.

 

Win some you lose some. Your luck will turn.
Sell the 1960/1980 halves on ebay as a set.

 

Is penny gone for good?

I was just told by TD bank that all penny coin counting machines are offline from Florida to Maine for the "foreseeable future."

No idea when they will be back if ever.

 

BWR Halves
Box 1: 1968D
Box 2: 1966, 1967, 1969D

Not picture worthy. I don't seem to really be getting the 90% stuff. I have one more box this week that comes in on Friday. Might determine my CRH future. Getting tired of all the dumps at the banks.

 

I've gone months with 0-2 40%ers per week.... it's a tough game.

 

Yeah, it is. I might just throttle back and go from 5-6 boxes of halves a week to 1 or 2 for awhile. I've only been doing this for 2 months with an accumulation of 9oz of silver. My first month was pretty bad with the halves. I got more silver doing boxes of dimes believe it or not.

 

I believe it. I stick to 2 boxes a week mainly because it's what I can carry in 1 visit (both pick up and dump). I do supplement as my time allows though. But I usually have an extra bag laying around until I find time to dump.

 

What is the dollar amount of a box of halves?
I have never bought a full box?

 

$500

 

Thanks, Just thinking I might have to get a box.

 

1960 nickel. Just needed for the kids book.

Picked up my 4 weekly 4 boxes of halves. Another set of skunks. That's 8 boxes in a row now.

I did search a box of cents and found this pretty cool 2001P Partial Brockage cent.

 

Wow weird coin FF2.
