How Much Is Too Much To Order From The Banks?

As long as we have circulating coins that were once made of silver, There will always be SOME silver out there. It is less common every day, and eventually it will be so hard to find that it might seem like it has disappeared, but it will never be completely gone from circulation.

Then copper will be the big one and after that, Nickel.

I had posted this thread a while ago. For me it has really been the "temperament" and willingness of the bank, or the person that orders the coin, to do what you ask. My best bank actually started off as my worst bank, I would go in and ask for a box now and then and they were really snotty, this is a bank I have been with for 20 years, before I stopped ordering I was getting 14k a week in halves, and 800 a week in pennies, sometimes I would mix it up and throw in dimes and quarters and maybe a box or two of nickels, this was split into 2 orders a week. So twice a week I was picking up 30boxes if I didn't add in the extras. The gal that always helped me kind of got to the point of egging me on, to see if I would get even more, now I am sure this is the exception and not the rule.

well the Canadian penny seems to be going strong in the US so we will probably be able to supply the north with some, for a while anyway. LOL I swear there are more Canadian pennies turning up since you guys did away with them than before.....
