We use TD as well. We dump a grand or two at a time. There is no limit, but the 50 cent bags fll up quick as they are usually only set for 100.00.

So total for last week...6 boxes plus 200.00 and 7 40%. The 200.00 was CWR. A customer that dumps his stuff in rolls. Argh! He hits all the banks near my new store evidently. So I wont be grabbing any CWRs there again.

If your bank doesn't have haves in their vault they may order them for you ($500 box). My 2 banks do so reluctantly and it ends up abou one box every 3 or 4 weeks. But at least they do it

Spent 3.5 hours and half a tank of gas to get a 68' and 67' half. After 4 months, $3500 face value searched I have discovered one undeniable inescapable fact... I should have started this in 1971 (the year I was born).

Pungod, my thoughts exactly. Even 7-10 years ago would have been good. Look at the silver people were finding when this topic was started compaired to now. We have a couple of boxes of dimes here at the bank that were rolled in the mid 90's (I think). I had our tellers put them aside for me. I'll see what find there.

Searched boxes #3 & #4 this week. The first box we found a 1967 right away, then the rest of the box NOTHING. Opened box #4 and roll after roll found nothing. My wife comes home & searches the LAST two rolls and finds a 1967 in the very last roll in the box. So far 4 boxes and hit at least one silver in every box. =)
Rest in Peace

1971s proof (can't tell)

No mirror, but you can spot that rim at arm's length.

I stopped at a few banks yesterday and picked up $840 rolled and $16.50 loose. I got one 40% from the loose change and one 40% from the rolls.

I figure those two paid for the gas, now if I could only have found one more to pay for the stop at the fast food restaurant.

Normally I get my halves from another bank...but today I was at a BoA where I normally buy all my dime boxes. Was there only to deposit a check...the branch manager asked if I collected halves, I say of course and ask why...someone ordered a box and hadn't been in all week to take them so she offered them to me. Luckily for me I had cash on me and took it.
Results - my best single box EVER!
67 - 40%, 3 1963 Franklins, 4 1964's
With that - I want some bananas...

Hit up about a half dozen banks the past two days with better than normal (for me at least) results. Yesterday - scored 3 proofs (77,79, & 81) and today yielded 5 40%ers out of around $70 worth. Not too shabby!
