Chadwick Valued Member United States 271 Posts	Posted 02/06/2012 09:24 am I find that I get the largest return on silver coins doing two things. 1) Go to banks, but don't buy boxes. Ask for the coins in the drawer. There always seems to be more silver in the drawer than in the boxes. Plus its a smaller investment. 2) Go around to all the quickmarts and see what the tellers have for you. I make it a point to let all the tellers at all the quickmarts know that I pay a bounty for uncommon coins. Sometime I even over pay just to keep them excited to search for me. This tactic has paid off better than anything else. I've scored Morgan and Peace dollars as well as silver halfs and silver proofs and untold wheat cents. Report this Post to the Staff

Call ahead to see if they have any, if they do, tell them that you are coming to get them. The tellers usually are very glad to let you take them all away so they do not have to count them any more. This is pretty much my strategy. Boxes are pretty useless. Most tellers hate to keep halves, and they can have a lot of odd coins, especially at small banks. One small-town teller once gave me seven Ikes with her halves. When they do have halves in their tray, there's often at least a 40% in the bunch. One teller last week had just six halves, but two were Franklins and one was a 40%! Edited by CPC24 02/06/2012 10:12 am Report this Post to the Staff
