How do you get so many boxes? Not how you afford but where do you find banks that will get that quantity? Just curious. My 2 banks are bothered by a box every so often

I churn them fast, live in a county with over 1 million people, so there are plenty of banks... plus I am focused, driven, and set specific goals... and I get upset when I don't hit them. For example I need 7.6 more oz this month to hit my monthly goal and if I don't hit it, you bet your butt I am gonna go even harder next month to make up for it.

For halves, also remember to check the rotation on the reverse. Some are not rotated correctly
and thus they are collectable and sometimes fetch very good prices.

Picked up a lot of change from a local CU chapter I have an account with. They had around $700+ in halves
but said they were sure they had already been gone through by the person who turned them in.

So, I get $200 in dimes and $800 in quarters. Silver delivery was one 1964 dime and one 1964 quarter. Also
found a heavily worn Buffalo nickel and a 1999 P BU quarter.

So do all of you bank where you pick p the halves? I haven't tried any banks that I don't bank at. Also how to get rid of so many afterward? Sorry for so many questions. I just know the issues I had when trying to obtain halves! Thanks

Dumping is the part I won't discuss too much, all it takes is one jealous person to screw it all up. :)

I'm on a 9 box skunk streak. It's been a couple months since it's been this bad for me.

I had my best box yet, even thought it doesn't compare to most of you. I had 5 - 40% in one box and actually had 2 in one roll which was a first for me as well. One of the 40% ers had a hole drilled through it though. I think I had one NIFC in there too. My other box just had one NIFC in it.

A personal accomplishment is still a good accomplishment.

Been a few weeks since I have checked some of the CU branches for large amounts of dimes or halves. Maybe tomorrow.
