ordered another 2 boxes, told me they are NOT going to order anymore halves as it costs them too much money SO I will start dumping in their coin counter! Just enough to aggravate them but not enough to have them cut me off, maybe $300 at at time once a week.

That sounds like what I do when a branch angers me - which is thankfully a rare occurence... One of the branches of my main bank gave me issues about getting a box of nickels about a month ago. I had no problems getting a box there several weeks earlier. The woman in charge at the time said it was a "merchant service" and that she would do it this one time, but not again... the box looked similar to the LOOMIS boxes a neighboring branch 3 blocks away was getting that were all new 2017-D nickels. So I decided to refuse the box. I went in there a couple of weeks later and DUMPED $50 in searched nickels.
CRH Nickeloholic. 1,600,000 nickels searched in eight years! Have found FOUR complete Jefferson sets!

That is what I am going to do to this bank, add it to my list of dump banks. On the way home from lunch I stopped at a Citizens Bank and asked for halves, they had 4 rolls, but offered to order a box or two for me. What a difference in attitude!

This may take a while. Long day hunting, teller has 13 rolls I take them. Can you guess the 2 rolls that were all 90% silver. When I saw the wrappers on those 2 on the right side I thougt for sure they were good to go. I open the other 11 rolls all Skunks saving those 2 rolls to open last. As I opened the roll and saw a Walking Liberty I knew it was game on. The sound those 90% make coming out of the roll is so so sweet. Both rolls solid silver. Later in the day another bank has $94.00 I open all the rolls except one that has a different wrapper and out come 7 very nice 1968s. A little later the 5 rolls pictured produced 7 40%. One more stop teller has 2 halves I take them both 40%. A really good day not my best but very very satisfying.

Great finds everyone! I still cant believe how much silver is found each day.(and how much more we dont hear about) I went through my 2nd box for the week and found 1 90 and 12 40s. I found (as I remember) 49 40s all last year and I'm already at 27 this year. Sure hope it keeps up for all of us. Beat that slot machine this week for sure.

Went back to a bank that has consistantly produced for me.The teller had $8 loose in a little envelope she recounted I was't even looking but I heard that sound. Ten 90%. Funny thing this bank has never given me a 40% only 90%. Who knows hard to explain sometimes.

Nice finds Cabo, Silver Eagle, & Pancake. Just finished going through the 1st of my 2 boxes. Unfortunately no silver again, but did get 5 NIFC's (2002P, 2005D, 2010P, 2010P w/ stickers on both sides, & 2013P. Hoping for a good box soon as I have only found 1-40% in last 4 cases. 3-40% + 2-90% in last 8 cases. I have 1 more case to go through and 2 more cases coming in this week. Good luck & Happy Hunting everyone.

Very nice.

I did 7 boxes of halves and 30 MWR's over the weekend and found 3 40% in 7 1/2 boxes. Very dissapointing
