Jbuck Quote:Fruit cake? So you are trying to not get anymore Eisenhower dollars? Just teasing. Delivered the Fruit Cake  Could not visit because she was up to her ears in customers  I feel, she will hunt the other Branches (for IKEs) as she is free to do so.  My wife whats to meet her, and she wants to meet my wife. We both feel lunch is too short of time.  We are trying for dinner. My treat

Mr. Click Quote: Good luck. I fear my well has run dry. Haven't talked to my banker in a week! Keep trying Try OTHER banks and Credit Unions etc. In my city there has to be 100 (or more) places. Do you have friends-relatives in other cities? See if they will help you to get coins. It has been about 15-18 months since Bank of America had a BAG for me. I am going to test her again soon enough.  BoA is my normal bank with savings and checking etc. Really feel she-they could produce a few (single) coins. May start ordering $500 boxes of Half dollars, and using her to dump

Mr. Click Quote: I was mostly joking as 1 week really isn't that long, but man I'm hoping for a Christmas bag or two!! Really hope you get a visit from Santa  My best hope is my Credit Union will cough up some IKEs that were cashed in for buying seasonal stuff. About 2 years ago I was hitting individual banks etc., and getting a single or up to a dozen at a time. Now I have horrible back pain, and those car diesel burning days are gone. My pitiful situation is I can drive to (any) place I KNOW there is a coin or coins.

Nothing more for all of 2015  Hoping for better luck in 2016 Maybe she didn't like the Fruit Cake Hoping there might be a late group of IKEs cashed in this few days

Got lucky today I when by to see my CU (manager) friend, but she was busy with a client. Then I went home and emailed her. She shot back a short email, then 4 minutes later with another email. Told me to go to another branch to get 120 IKEs  Burning rubber and diesel down highway I-169 they had 118 IKEs for me. Can't remember who brought up the subject of half dollars ... any way she had about 500 coins. Having only a small amount of extra $$$$ I said I would take all the remaining $32 in halfs. Naturally no sliver (halfs) but still nice. From this source add 118 today to the 452 bringing the Credit Union total to 570 IKEs. Average coins per day about 1.48 IKEs
