Do you guys have better luck searching bank wrapped or customer wrapped rolls?

I'll have to ask if they have any next time I go in then. Do they typically give those out willingly or do you have to kind of persuade them? I feel like they probably have to recount and reroll CWRs and may have policies that dictate they don't give those out in order to make sure they don't short change anyone.
How many rolls/boxes do you usually get per week and do they usually have a lot of CWRs?

Just wondering how many CCF 5c Boxes get searched by Another CCF member...then...another...why don't we start a simple mark, or stamp to use on the rolls, and box top, to save a LOT of wasted time re-searching what was just searched...I'll write down responses and keep track of answers for the heck of it(I'm sure I'm not the first to have this idea...an "Official CCF" stamp for returns)....I tape my rolls, mark them with 2 big X's, and, leave a big XXXX on box top, JUST in case it comes back to me down the line....

A simple stamp with CCF and maybe the web address on it would be good. That way current members will know it's been searched and nonmember CRHs will maybe check out the forum.
I think I may put something together like that for my rolls. Anyone know of somewhere online or elsewhere that makes stamps for cheap?

Guys, unless you're all in the same area, I think it would probably be a waste of time.

But it could also turn other CRHs in your area onto the forum and we could possibly better coordinate efforts and see what others in our area are finding g.

True, I did meet a roll searcher at my usual bank, told him to join CCF. Not sure if he did. But he was searching bills and dollar coins anyway.

I normally search Halves but my bank didn't have any today. My girlfriend felt sorry for me and picked up $22 in customer wrapped nickels from her Credit Union. I found 1-1943-P and a couple of coins I think have lamination errors. I was also able to fill or upgrade about 15 holes in my Dansco Album. This is my first experience with lamination errors. I'm going to have my Brother look at them before I attempt to post photos. He not only knows more about these kind of errors, he has a good camera to take the photos. I'll show them to him Monday at work.
