They did not have any on hand and had to get some one to go look in the vault, I got a box and it was open and full of hand wrapped nickel rolls all the sleeves are of various styles and some look really old... Hope it isn't some one else dump. I'll post results when done. Crossing fingers!

I like bank of america, they give you sealed boxes- indicates they come from somewhere else, not that branch. Yielded quite a few key dates and silvers from that one. Keep us posted man!!

I've been searching all hand-rolled for the last 3 years.
ALL customer hand-rolled are someone's dump, regardless of how you look at it.
Better the chance to receive solid silver rolls.
Good luck
When I listen to LED ZEPPELIN...so do my neighbors... Roll hunting since '77 Dirt fishing since '72

All of my boxes have been hand rolled, as I pick them up at a small urban credit union.

I finally got done with this box, I think this was a Searched box somewhat, besides several Canadians I found one No Date Buffalo and a 1942 P War Silver that's the results.

If the box was searched it was not searched well enough to get that 1942P! I think the Buffalo also would have been kept. (I've kept all my dateless Buffaloes).

I think that's a 1920 buffalo. Decent results though! Go get another!

A buffalo and a War Nickel are still about as much as you can expect, even from a sealed box. Were there really no other 1938-1959 in the box? Very strange if that is the case. Customer rolls seem to be a bigger risk with a bigger potential payout. I've searched a handful of $100 customer batches and come up empty, and I've also gotten a couple dumped collections via CRW. I'd say you did pretty well.

there was very little 40's and 50's maybe about 4 of them I did not keep at all... that's where I think it may have been a searched batch and I happened to get what they missed.

Doom I've found sealed boxes of nickels and dimes that have results very similar to yours. I'm finding that there are declining numbers of coins earlier that the '70's (especially in the dimes) but there is a distinct decline in the nickels before the '60's. I don't know what to attribute this decline to, but it is happening quickly.
