10 boxes, XF-AU '62, a '64, and 6 40%... bad week for me.

Just got approved for bag service with Loomis, which will allow me to dump out of my supply since 85% of my boxes are Garda. This should help a LOT.

By the way, that franklin on the last page looks VF-XF. I'd say 35-40.

My nicest roll find franklin was a '50-P in MS64 with dang near FBL.

Hey BernieZ,

I have never taken any pics of coins before, but I might give it a shot this weekend and see how they come out.

That will work, I need bag service Let me rephrase that I can get free bag service, but I need it with instant cash back. I dump 4000$ at one bank, and 2000$ at one weekly, then I just free dump 1000$ between 5-6 branches. Iv got one branch I want to use more. The head teller was kind of a pain, but I havnt seen him in a while, thought he was gone. Well I went in yesterday for the second week in a row, got a warm greeting, and the one girl teller said, "oh more halves come on up" quick 20 second verify no card asked for. So I'm thinking ok good I was getting ready to ask about weekly drops, but then I saw "the guy". He told the other girl to bag em. Should of asked but didnt. oh well, trying to find another 6 box dump bank, then I can up it to 20 boxes a week from 14-16.
Iv got 4 boxes today, might try for a fifth one , got a bonus bank, that is not real close to me, but it always has good boxes. They will not order for you. Real hassle to deal with,their vault is in the basement, you have to call ahead and "hope" they agree to release a sacrad box to you. IV asked for 2 but they never give you 2 only one if they do. I fooled them last time my box from them had 40 keepers,got it on a saturday, and sent the wife in monday, with the old my bank over on blah blah told me I could come here for halves
Working right there today might make the call, already got one on monday though, so dont know if they will give one up again so soon.

I have the best head teller in the world!

She just took time to phone me at home and tell me she had a customer bring in 111.00 of halves and since she saw quite a few silver ones, she told the tellers to set them aside for me!

I cannot wait to see what is in them - will keep you updated

Man I cannot wait until I can get there!

I have good news and bad. I'll get the bad bit over with first. Called my teller at the bank that I don't have an account with. This nice lady has been getting me a bag of $500 every week for a few months, and it's been by far my most productive halves. She's on vacation and the gentleman asks if he can help. I know I should just say I'll call back tomorrow but I was expecting more halves in 'tomorrow' and wouldn't have the funds. Long story short, I got the "Do you have an account with us" question as I was leaving. Answered no but didn't give them time to say they won't be doing it any more but I know when I call next week, I'll be shut off.

Now the good, That bag had a silver bicentennial proof, 1964, and a franklin. I plan on getting pictures of those, along with my walking liberty from my last box.

Oh, and my $1000 bag that was supposed to come in has been delayed to next Tuesday.

OO

$300 in hand-wrapped rolls (can't tell if a customer or teller wrapped them!) yielded 9 silver-clad, 5 1964 Kennedys, a 1959-D Franklin, one clad proof and 2 NIFC coins. Considering all the skunk-box reports I see on this thread I suppose that's not too bad.

I don't think I could handle box after box with no keepers. I'll stick to just taking what the tellers happen to have on hand....
