Hi,

I went to my local bank and now find that they can not order boxes anymore-I can only get what rolls they have at the moment. Anyone else encountering that? Wondering if it's a bank/branch thing or that the banks in general are cutting down on helping collectors. Not many other places you can get boxes at face value!

I had one bank tell me they could order boxes for me, but there is a 15¢ charge/roll. That's $7.50/box over face, which is not too terrible, but that surprised me. I had another bank that told me they could order boxes of quarters, but not halves or dollars. The credit unions I am in don't order many coins and my requests have to wait til they do, which is every 6 weeks or so. They only thing they all agree on is they have no say in whether they get new coins or circulated. You get what you get.

I think most banks have an upcharge for businesses that order or deposit coinage. They don't like coinage at all. They would much rather sell you a mortgage or finance your car. I suspect handling coinage as a service of the banking industry is on the way out, unless you want to pay them extra.

Shop around a bit at different banks and credit unions, if you can, then move your accounts to the ones that understand your desire for coins.

Good points. Will shop around more-I'm sure there are banks that are better than others when it comes to this area.

Too bad ebay has to do highway robbery for even one roll!
