<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cpm9ball, post: 1934307, member: 24633&quot;]For several years, I used to search boxes of half dollars that I ordered every week through my BoA branch. I had been banking at the same location for more than 20 years. Then I started noticing some coins that looked strangely similar to others I had come across. When I mentioned this to the head teller (who ordered them for me) I learned that BoA has their own regional facility to resupply the area banks with rolls. When the regional facility runs low on a particular denomination, it is only then that they place an order through the Federal Reserve. As a result, all the rolls that I rewrapped and returned to my branch were merely recirculated through their facility. That is when I stopped searching boxes.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t recommend buying bags through FleaBay. You can &quot;take it to the bank&quot; that they have already been searched.</p><p><br /></p><p>Have you ever considered opening a small account with a local credit union? I used to use a local Teachers Federal Credit Union. I was never a teacher, and you don&#039;t have to be one here. It was advantageous because I could use their coin-counting machine for free. If you have one in your area that will allow you to order boxes, this would probably be a better alternative since they most likely order boxes direct from the FRB. Each credit union branch limited any one depositor to $100 through the machine per day, but there were 5 branches within 20 minutes of my home.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
