I would check with the guy or store that has the coin collection machines. See if you can make a deal to buy the coins at face value. Then any coins you don't want, spend at the store!

The tellers that wont order are either lazy or ignorant. Anyone can order halves, it is on the weekly order sheet. When I was a teller 6 years ago, I had to submit the weekly coin/currency order online and there was always a section for halves in the coin category. I would order a box or two for myself every week, did this for roughly 2 years and always received the coins. No one ever questioned the orders or asked me who I was ordering the halves for. I think the average teller today is simply unaware that these coins can easily be ordered and that most banks have plenty in supply. You need to check with the head teller or commercial teller, these usually place the weekly branch cash order.

You conveniently forgot the third and most probable choice aside from lazy and ignorant. They've been told they're not allowed. You were a teller 6 years ago and that makes you an expert on procedures now at everyone's bank? And entitles you to make a blanket statement that thousands upon thousands of tellers that are doing what they've been told, that you don't even know, are lazy or ignorant? That sir, is ignorant.

6 years ago half hunting was not a big thing , silver was less then $4 a ounce and not even worth the time
40% silvers were worth 60 cents and silver 90% was a little over a buck.

Now those 40% coins are around 3.50 and the 90% 9-10 dollars BIG DIFFERENCE from 6 years ago.

My bank wont order halves PERIOD I even talked to the manager , he says they get shipped in from far away and people they ordered for changed their minds and didnt pick them up and they have to pay to send them back . SO THEY NO LONGER DO IT PERIOD

but will sell you the ones they take in from customers
