Its been some time since I have done CRH but was curious if you guys mainly go with ordering boxes or getting bags. I mainly search Pennies through Quarters, any better luck from boxes or bags or do you think its luck of the draw?

Boxes are easy to get in bulk

I usually get boxes because that is what most banks have on hand. I've had good luck with both however.

Many years ago we could get mint sewn bags with lead seals on them. The odds were better to get misshaped coins, like double struck or broad strikes in bags. Maybe the machines that roll up coins would catch the odd shaped coins and reject them from getting rolled? I dunno?

I always liked the $500 bags of halves, because of all the extra goodies that came with them, even if skunked. I'm talking bags usually at least $20 over in the form of quarters, dimes, guitar picks, rings etc...but alas, 30 or more banks in this town and very few with coin counters. So, boxes by force.

I like to buy bags off my banks coin counter if I can. Do get a box every now and then if no bags are available. Don't really notice much difference in sucess

Bags. Where I'm at N.F. String does pre-sort on a lot of coins, removing both silver and copper coins from circulation and selling them separately for profit. Then they roll everything post-sort and send that to the bank.

Welcome, MBACMA.
I have to inquire whether your info on String is based on personal employment there, or if you can offer some solid proof that String pulls silver coins. Just asking because I've been in the game for years, and this has been an ongoing debate and no one has been able to persuade many of us of String's practice. Thanks.

Here you go. The Webcoins thing is a store run on ebay, Webcoins and N.F. String are one and the same though: Webcoins is a Pennsylvania Fictitious Name filed on April 3, 2013. The company's filing status is listed as Active and its File Number is 4178106. The company's principal address is 1380 Howard Street, Harrisburg, PA 17104. The company has 1 principal on record. The principal is N. F. String & Son, Inc. from Harrisburg PA. |
