Did my first box today, but they were cwr rolls. Half way through I realized that they had been searched already because there was a black dot on each roll. Everything was completely cherry picked. I got lucky at a different bank and got 1 40% coin. I'm going to try to order a box and see how that goes. I wonder what the circulating area is for central Maryland.
Also do you think returning them to a casino would suffice as a method of dumping them? Cash them in, bet a few buck (maybe win) and then walk out with the cash. Thoughts?

4 Boxes and 7 coins @ 40%.
One box had a couple of rolls that had been unwrapped. Maybe spotted some enders in the roll before the box was sealed?

Was at the bank yesterday to pick up a box of nickels. I casually asked the teller if she had any loose halves, and she said that she had some "really shiny" ones for me. (I think you all know where this is going) Got 6 beautiful, deep cameo clad proofs. The teller fingerprinted them a little, but I can't fault her for that.  1980S 1985S 2000S 2002S 2003S 2004S  |

So, I picked up my first box today (actually it came in a plastic Loomis bag). Final total: 3 x 90% 11 x 40% 1x 2000 proof 1 x 2002 proof Took some pics, I'll update when I get home. Just ordered 3 more boxes.  The haul:  2002 & 2000 Proof:  3 90%'ers.. Middle one seems to be AU/BU.  Edited by BoomerSoonerOKU

Boxes 65-67
One box was returned to me again from another bank dump.
Three rolls were replaced with new ones containing nothing.
The three rolls that were taken were full rolls of BU 2001's that I put aside normally. The drivers are obviously searching for enders at least.

Some casinos in this area (Shreveport/Bossier) still have some machines that take coins. Not sure how much longer that will last.
I've had a very dry year searching. But I also have not been finding many customer wrapped halfs this year, unlike in previous years.

A 1967 out of two boxes today. At least 75% of the coins were uncirculated 1995P or 1996P.
