I hear Ya OO. Brinks around here is hit or miss, but when they hit its nice.
After 27 box skunk streak with Garda, I finally hit one lone 40% today #700 since feb. 1.
I dont think I'm gonna hit my 1000 40%, and 100 90% goal by feb. 1 unless I hit some good ones. Should have around 80 boxes between now and then. Thinking of trying to do a one or two time 50 box week in january when work is slow. I most likely could easily get them ordered, dont Know if I want to mess with dumping the extras though.

Like you said HH, it will depend on catching some good boxes. You really need to catch one of those monster boxes. Never know when it will hit.
I want to talk to you sometime about how you manage the large scale hunting you do. I could come up with the capital to run a bunch of boxes but I just don't see how to manage it without burning out my sources unless I devoted the time to make about 30 bank stops a week. I want to know the details of how and how many places you buy and dump. Do you walk in to some place pushing a cart of $5000 in halves to dump? If not, what's your average amount you dump? Do you just ask a bank how many they will allow you to buy? Do you have great relationships with just a couple banks or do you frequent 15 or 20 branches? I need to know! LOL

I dump $6k a time (That's my bankroll) at 2 locations, 2 times a week each. Pick up from 16 banks, between 2 and 6 boxes per.

I get 4-5 boxes a week and dump them in around $450-$700 tin cans (they hold between those amounts). I take them to a coin counter at a few different branches. So I'm roughly dumping 5-6 times a week at as many branches so I don't wear out my welcome at each one. I do this because I took over $1k a few times but it fills the machine. There are no bags in these machines, it just dumps into a common lock box for all the coins. It's very annoying. I'd like to find a place I can take bags with larger amounts in them or something.

HEy OO, sent you an email. Forgot to mention dont forget we gotta swap 2013 cents again half box for half box, if you still want to.
I hit 8 banks a week to do 14 boxes, biggest dump is 4000$.Dump at 3 banks a week. Get cash back instantly at every dump.
Fade to black has it made, you get your cash back instantly at those 2 sounds like, nice.

I bought 5 rolls today, found 12 Bicentennials, a "holey" 1971, and my first DDO: a 1974-D! What are DDOs going for nowadays? |

Yeah, it's sick, bags for cash on the spot, I deposit and withdrawal to keep a record of the transaction. Took me 3 and a half years of bugging them for this to get it, so glad I have it now. Saves me a ton of time. Another big searcher in NJ wore out his welcome with TD, so I'm micromanaging right now, trying to do my best to make sure I don't get cut off. I do need to find another outlet though, dumping into my own supply is absolutely killing my numbers. Trying to secure the means to dump into Loomis, hopefully Citizens Bank comes through for me and can do it... Hell, I'll even pay a per bag fee to dump there if it gets fresh supplies coming into Garda instead of my own recycled crap.
I'd gladly switch my orders to Loomis, but from what I'm seeing, they must handle the casino's in Jersey because I'm getting that NJ guy's dumps when I get Loomis boxes. He dumps $12k at the AC casinos and the rest used to go to TD.

I know who your talking about, atleast hes not painting those coins anymore. Id stay away from hes dumps obviously. I thought he mentioned garda being on him about the paint clogging up their counting machines, maybe that was his local dumps. Good luck getting set up. I think I may be getting close to bags at my 4k dump, I ask once a month, they have pretty much told me they just count rolls,open and bag.
Good luck monks, you will probably start finding stuff after you cut back....lol...then you will wish you didnt.

It's just a matter of time until that guy wears everybody out, nobody likes him from what I can tell. If I had the bankroll to do it, I'd dump all my rejects right on his pickup turf to ruin the cost efficiency of the hobby for him.
Anybody wanna loan me $15k at 10% interest per annum so I can ruin that guy? Lol.

Hoping to drop by a main branch of my CU on Monday and see if I can get a good mix of CR dimes and halves. They should be just about full by now with additional Holiday dumpers and the like.
In fact, may hit two separate locations before they close early Monday. Here is to crossing the fingers.
