Coin Roll Hunting - The Best Hobby Ever?

Denver, what you are working for is the silver value, you should be filing your taxes based off that, not the face value. If you get audited, they will slap you down and straighten you out with some heavy fines and penalties. Also, your employer is breaking the law by paying you like that as it means you and him are not paying into SS, MediCare, SUI, and all the other federal programs.

You'd be smart to take some advice from others here... it doesn't matter if the tellers love you, I learned that the hard way. The tellers don't call the shots, upper management does, and upper management doesn't give two craps about a bunch of entry-level rank and file employees, their job is to protect the bottom line, and you are detrimental to that end. With that said, going to 14 banks a week is nothing, and only ordering at 4? There is no way anybody will clean out an area ordering at that rate. I was ordering 40+ boxes of halves a week (and halves don't circulate) and still finding silver. With a denom that actually sees circulation, you would have to move through probably 100+ boxes a week to make a real dent.

I've been roll hunting for 35 years, and I get burnt out at times. It is a great hobby, but metal detecting is best!

Crh'ing = silver at face
Metal detecting = silver for FREE!

This is all you need to know on coin 1933 and older and taxation:

Read that and know that private coins are PRIVATE and TAX FREE 100% :)

CRH is right up there with turkey hunting!

Well whether I am right or wrong doesn't matter anymore.... I quit working there cause I was sick of watching that guy rip people off... Seriously selling a 1/10 ounce of gold today for 200 dollars... I was like dude you are WAY too greedy and I want no part of it.... But luckily I still have my CRH YAY :).... instead of bringing back 4 boxes of pennies I have decided to go for 8 boxes of nickels daily :)

"CRH is the best hobby (in the winter)".

Not here in Florida, summer is the time to stay inside.

In big city yeah it's the best hobby. Many banks around every corner; many coin counting machines for dumping; banks open on Saturday and even Sunday. You can even arrange pick-ups or dumps on your way to work or after work. You can pick up coins on lunch break. If you mess up relationship with one branch you can go to next one. Also the turnover is very big in big city banks because college kids graduate and get a better pay job.

If you live in a small town or village with less than three banks then it's not that a great hobby. You can not dump too many coins; It will not be feasible to do large volume at all. It costs too much for the bank to get boxes of coins from the Fed due to the remote location so the bank will pass the fee to you after a few boxes. When you live in small town you practically know all the tellers and don't want to be "that guy".

My town is full of banks, so no worries here!
