Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 02/01/2013 10:33 am Even though I got lucky on just 2 boxes that I recently bought, I believe that your odds of finding many good coins and especially silver are not as good on these boxes as actual customer bank rolls/singles that are brought in directly. The reason I think is that because just about all of the coin counting machines that I have seen etc. reject all the silver coins thus they never even make it to a bag or back to the carrier for re rolling and re distribution. Maybe a few get left in the reject tray but not a ton. My best finds were at banks/cu's that did not have coin counters. As far as marking each coin I would think a lot of work for not much of anything other than tracking purposes. If you know your banks carriers then you know where the coins are going to and also are being brought back to the same bank branches. I would think that the rejects brought back and processed would end up right back at the front of the outgoing line if the carriers are not moving many boxes. Just some thoughts anyway.

coinhuntingobsession New Member United States 18 Posts	Posted 02/01/2013 4:35 pm I was finally able to get some boxes from the bank. The head teller called me 2 wks in a row to say that she forgot to order them and was unable to amend the order. I got 4 boxes...Brinks wrapped. Boxes 1,2 and 4...only a couple of NIFCs and a bad condition proof. Box 3...27 40%. Of the 27; 23 were 1968. After finding these, I can only imagine how exciting it would be to find a box with a bunch of 90% like some people find. I felt excited like I just got off a roller coaster. I do realize how lucky I was to find so many in my first boxes. I have also been very lucky to find a good bit in CWR at the end of 2012. Report this Post to the Staff
Kurrykid Valued Member United States 455 Posts	Posted 02/01/2013 5:14 pm I just picked up a new box. I won't have time to go through it until sometime this weekend. Hopefully, I'll turn up something as my first 2 boxes were skunks. I'm starting to get a little discouraged even though I know it's expected! Dave Report this Post to the Staff

Broseph Pillar of the Community United States 979 Posts	Posted 02/02/2013 01:03 am Out of one box, I got no silver, many rolls looked like they had been picked through, yet I got 6 NIFC 3x 2002D, 2007 D, 2008 P, 2008D Is that normal? No one else noticed these. And with all the different marking types, this area has a lot of competition Report this Post to the Staff

Kurrykid Valued Member United States 455 Posts	Posted 02/02/2013 01:52 am I am about half way through a box and it's kind of weird...there are a lot of "shiny" coins. I have found at least a few dozen from almost all the years from 1971 and up that look like they have never been circulated. And that's with me putting back tons of others that looked almost just as nice but had some type of minor flaw. Does anyone know why this box may be like this? Thanks.

hybes Valued Member United States 183 Posts	Posted 02/02/2013 02:23 am Kurry, If you are in the Grand Rapids area, you will see a lot of those. I just recently started saving a few of them. Figured I could get together an MS P&D set in a couple weeks. Report this Post to the Staff
Kurrykid Valued Member United States 455 Posts	Posted 02/02/2013 02:26 am I'm closer to the Detroit area. Why is there a lot of them in this area? I didn't notice very many in the other 2 boxes I went through. Report this Post to the Staff
