Nice score for sure.
I miss those gardas wrappers around here, ever since they switched to the new black and white rolls finds have dwindled. Every once in a while I get a box with some of those old wrappers mixed in, and they are always good.

Awesome that you can go through them so fast. Does your bank roll them for you?

I have yet to purchase my first $500 box of halves from my local bank, but will be doing so next week. I spoke to one of the tellers the other day and she said that they have one guy that has been doing this for a while and they charge $4 something for the box. Does anyone else have to pay for the box...besides paying the $500 (obviously)?
Thanks for the help!

Nope, but if I had to pay $4 per box I would break even, as my finds average one 40% per box.

I would not pay for the box unless I had no other option. And in that case I would just concentrate on making the rounds in my area and buy up as many halves as every bank had. Best bet there is to call ahead so you don't waste time walking in at banks that have none

My bank doesn't charge me. There are more banks out there with free accounts. Why not try somewhere free? They won't feel ripped off as long as you leave the $500 in there until you get your order.

Best box ever. Ignore the banter between me and my fiancee, who had just gotten home from work, or her shoving one of our cats into the camera frame, lol.
Final tally of 1 Walker (I was incorrect in the video, it does not fill a roll, it fills a hole in my album, it's a '27-S.), 2 franklins, 8 '64's, and 112 40%ers, including the 40% bicentennial.
20.54oz of silver worth $645.66 at melt right now. I think my heart rate just doubled. Banks are getting stickier for me to get dimes, nickels, and cents from. I wonder how they'd go for $500 worth of $0.50 pieces. Do you tell them what you're doing?
