brinks sucks
boxes 6 and 7 skunks, I'm sure 8 and 9 tommorrow will be skunks. Called a few banks today, reluctantly, the people answering thephone told me they use brinks, looking for a loomis bank.

From what I am reading, my first four boxes must NOT have come from Loomis.
I found no silver in the last two, but have found some nice 1980s P & D combinations
as well as about six NIFCs. Now, off to my Credit Union to dump about $300 of the $1000 I need
to dump.

I must have had a PROOF box on Monday night, found 2 - 1971 S, 2 -1972 S (one nice cameo ) and 2 - 1976 S. I also got one 40% out of there and 2 NIFC. My other box didn't have any proofs but had 2 more 40%ers so it was a good night for me.

Today I talked to the bank where I got the Loomis box from yesterday to order more boxes, she told me that they do not order boxes from a courier instead the company processes all the coins from their coin counting machines and roll them and that is what the branches use. Not sure if this is true but might explain why I did find some silver in the box yesterday.

Went through six boxes last night and this afternoon- and aside from the nifc's (6x2002d, 12x2002p), I got skunked... until I went to run the last few boxes through the coin counter at the bank. The machine jammed, so when my teller opened it, she cleaned out the trap and gave me what was in it: 5 canadian quarters and one canadian nickel. The quarters are fine, but it was the nickel I was excited about...   |

boxes 8 and 9 skunks, I'm at 9 in a row skunkers.
Penman dont tell me that lol.....Im working on opening an account somewhere with loomis coin service. I think I'm done keeping nifc coins also, got 2 rolls of mixed years, dont want to tye anymore money into them. Iv been buying rolls offline of 90% silvers, just building my ounces up for investment. stopped buying locally because of sales tax, shipping online is cheaper.
Sweet nickel jbm, my oldest canadian find is a 1937 nickel in a roll

hey guys, I stopped by several banks in Chinatown and picked up some halves and tried a few dimes. Out of $100 in Customer Wrapped Rolls, I found these 2 beauties a 69 :D and a 67, pretty ordinary I should say, I really miss those gleaming 90% halves. These 40% guys just look quite like silver thats depressed, theres not that joy from seeing a 90%.  |
