I posted this in the Kennedy thread, but thought it deserved it's own thread. Not too often you get dream boxes... this is my second. They're still out there! Saw a WLH and a bunch of 40% enders when the teller handed me the box. Went out ot my car, ripped it open, looked for more... total enders? 13, including a double-sided ender. 1 WLH, the rest were 40%ers. Went to reach for my phone... wasn't there. Crap... well, long story short, it fell under the passenger side seat and I was running around for an hour like a madman looking for it. Realized it was in the car when my Fiancee called me and my bluetooth in the car started going off, lol. So unfortunately, no pictures of the enders or the progress through the box, but I did take pictures of the results... This also includes the other box I picked up from the same bank, which had 20 keepers (5 90%, 15 40%) of it's own. The dream box had 100 40%ers and 5 90%ers. Here's your pics.  Note that I inadvertently cut off the last stack, you can see the corner of it off to the bottom right. Here's the 90%ers spread out... yeah, blurry pic, my bad.  I'll make sure I record the opening of the next box I get that has a dozen enders, lol. :) |

Yep, Garda box. I've had way bigger scores from customer rolls, but this is my best box to this point.

Killer score for sure. Your getting lots of good stuff lately. I get the same black and white garda rolls around here, and about 2 monthes ago, they went to crap. Best I can tell As far as coin counters around here go they pick up all of them besides coinstar and one bank with 2 branches,brinks gets those. There are not that many around here. I think some people have started dumping their rejects into them. I figured they were good because of the machines, and now they are going bad because of them. I dont think that many people get boxes from them around here. Got some coins last week from them, nice beat up old, boxes that have been wet that are always decent, that was short lived as yesterday, they were nice and new boxes again loaded with enders marked up by the biggest coin marker guy around here. This has happend before I usually get threw the same coin rejects in 2 weeks, took me 2 monthes last time, and the rejects showed up again after one week, granted that was only 2 boxes yesterday, have to see what todays 4 boxes bring and next weeks. I'm not ready to give up on them yet.

how is he marking the coins? I can see the logic to track and see if your dump is coming back to you, or next time you see your mark don't bother checking the coin again, but the number of coins I have been going through marking them all would be a pain in the butt to say the least.

Dont want to take away from the dream box post, but Iv marked some, its to see how quick you get them back. I know my dumps get bagged the same day and picked up. Iv gotten silver in the same rolls as my marked coins before. This guys marks are in 80% of my boxes, doesn't mean much to me EXCEPT, when I get one like yesterday, where 15 rolls packed together every coin is marked in a flat box, as soon as I open it, I know 1/3rd of the box was a straight dump from him, bag to coin counter, to wrappers. All this guy does is put a straight black thin line across the face. Found boxes like this in brinks and garda, so he must dump sparadically at multiple banks.
