[QUOTE="Doug21, post: 1437806, member: 5650"]Well I got skunked on my box. No silver. I looked at coins that appeared to be uncirculated from the edge reeding. I found a 2008 and a 2009, but not of much use to me. If I'm going to get skunked 90% of the time, I'm done with this experiment. I can't dump lose halves anywhere, so I have to re-roll with the machine wrapped rolls. Few banks have coin counters and the one I did call to inquire said it doesn't take halves. I spent about a minute a roll, carefully opening one end with a small flatblade screwdriver then putting the coins back and taping that end shut. I'd need to average better than one 90% per box or several 40% to continue this. I don't think that will happen buying boxes ? So I'm going to dump these at another branch of the same bank and be done with it, then somebody else can get these same coins. I will ask for customer wrapped rolls in the future, but they are scarce. No more ordering boxes for me.[/QUOTE]
