[QUOTE="Atreides, post: 1522853, member: 36287"]Stopped by one of my local banks to pick up a box of dimes, and they had apparently ordered me a box of halves as well. I got them home, and to my dismay I found that not only were 50-75% of the coins marked (with a thick black sharpie mark about 1/4-1/2" on the obverse near the edge) but all the marked coins were also painted silver on the rims. I mean... really, why would you paint your marked halves silver, not only is it rude (marking coins is rude enough) but you'll probably end up slowing yourself down when you find your own marked halves again in circulation. Thankfully, the box had 6x 40%ers that got into the mix or the person missed. I'm going to assume the person missed, because then I have even more reason to think that the moron that colored the rims silver is an idiot. Is anyone going to do an August results thread? This has been my 2nd best month of the year so far but I've still got a few more boxes to open before I post my results.[/QUOTE]
