1337 Pillar of the Community United States 656 Posts	Posted 04/26/2008 9:09 pm I decided to spend a day in NYC looking for halves and "the reject tray" of every single commerce bank. So I started my day and got 2 rolls from National Valley Bank. The I got 3 customer made rolls from Bank Of America. I had only 150 on me, so I sat down in Barnes and Nobles and went through them NO SILVER. Then I went to the commerce bank dumped them, but I found a 1 EURO and 1995 Penny, Nickel, and Dime. Then I went to couple of commerce and looked at commerce bank's PENNY ARCADE reject trays. I found a two pence, a 1995 Nickel, and Dime and pennys. A mud up dime and two penny. Then I went to a chase and bought 120 dollars of Halves from Chase. I looked at 30 Dollars worth a Mcdonald and NO SIVLER. I dumped them at commerce and boughtt another 30 and went home. I looked through them and found 3 1967 40% Silver Halves. I'm wondering why 1995 were there. Edited by 1337 04/27/2008 08:49 am Report this Post to the Staff

KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 04/26/2008 10:32 pm Can someone explain to me what is a "reject tray" at a bank? Is that similar to a Coinstar reject tray? I've never seen such a thing at a bank... Report this Post to the Staff
1337 Pillar of the Community United States 656 Posts	Posted 04/27/2008 08:48 am Commerce Bank has a penny acarde similar to a coinstar machine, but it is free. It also doesn't accept foriegn and silver coins (why 1995's were there escapes me.) So sometimes you get lucky and find some coins in them, because NYorkers just dont care (always on the go.) Well I went to the CHASE BANK of 52 st and 6th ave. Near the UBS building and Bombay Place resterant. Thats where I got my halves with the silver. They were all wrapped in yellow. He said they came staright from the FED> Edited by 1337 04/27/2008 08:50 am Report this Post to the Staff
GFR3 Valued Member United States 473 Posts	Posted 04/27/2008 10:42 am Silvers getting very scarce around here 1964s, you did good! No ida what's up with the 1995s though...very odd Report this Post to the Staff
hugemistake2003 Valued Member United States 172 Posts	Posted 04/27/2008 11:46 am I have had very little luck finding halves (never mind silver) in NYC. I have found just one 40% silver here. (I think that the tellers are reluctant to go into the vaults it being a large city). There will be tons of halves though at Bank of America on Broadway and 9th Street! Those are my dumping rolls.

She had $30 of customer halves and more in the valut ( which I could get if I came back in an hour) I looked through them and found none. Decided not to go back. Report this Post to the Staff
