How To Get Boxes Of Halves?

You need to go to your bank, where you bank with then ask them to order you a box of half dollars. Be warn, not all banks can order halves and some will charge you for the order or future orders.

It's one of those things where you need to be polite yet stern with your approach. I tried getting a box of halves from 4-5 banks before finding "the one".

1) Banks usually don't carry those half dollar boxes on them and so they must order them. In my experience I have never been able to walk into a bank and get a box of halves without them being ordered special for me. Pennies, nickels, dimes, etc yes...halves no.

2) Some banks will attempt to tell you there will be a fee for ordering you a box special. Let them know that you are a customer and a member of that bank. You hold an account with them. Suggest to them to simply place it onto their weekly order. Don't do it if there will be a fee because they know that they can simply add it to their weekly order and not charge you.

3) Speak with either the head teller or a manager. The normal tellers usually don't know what to do if someone asks questions like that and they're unable to place the orders themselves. Find out who these "head tellers" are and sweet talk them.

4) Some banks may simply not order boxes for their customers. If all previous methods have been exhausted, you may need to try another bank.

Good luck.

Probably better than any box you end up with.
