How does everyone order 8 boxes? What bank do you use that lets you order that many?

Just wondering,

How many have found either a 2009 P and/or D Kennedy half?

I found a 2009 D a little while ago.

Got one 2009 - and to order boxes just takes persistence. Keep looking and you will find a few source banks. I have a few thus when they shut off the tap at one I have others that will take up the slack. Just be friendly in the banks and you will find your source banks.

Nice grab Ratman

I should be picking up 2 boxes this afternoon if they came in.
I don't know if the holiday changes the orders at all.

Still enjoying some luck. Picked up a box today and scored 12 40%. Nice find as this is not a regular source though it does come from the same source district. Also happened upon a coinstar machine today as a service man was emptying the machine. Interesting to watch as they hauled out the coin box. One large wooden box collects all the coins. Man was a bit grumpy as I questioned him but was interesting to see the insides of the machine. Had a reject box which I noted had a silver half. He wasn't interested in selling any of the rejects...

My 2 boxes today were both skunks. Just about every coin had a black mark on it.

Out of $200 worth last week, I got 3 rolls of bi-centennials, and nothing else. More for allowances and lunch money. My wife goes to the store and she gets a '68 Kennedy in CHANGE !?!?!

My bank was late in getting my order in for halves so I headed into work. On the way in I stopped at a bank that has only had halves once in a year. Today they had four rolls. Didn't expect much but was surprised as first roll was solid Walkers. Next roll Bens and Walkers. Third roll was Bens and Kennedy 64s. Last roll was all 40% Kennedys. I sure need to thank my source bank for those halves for being late and sending me out to scrounge on the way to work!

Maine Jim - congrats! That's a great find.
My box this week was pretty good:

1944
1952
5 x 1967
5 x 1968-D

and my first proof - a 2004 S with GREAT Cameo on it. It's a shame about a couple of small contact marks or I'd say it's a PF 67.
