Poll Question
Hi Everyone
Ive been noticing that I get more silver coins from change and Bank Tellers then roll searching. Have other people been noticing that also? Where do you find your coins

Are you referring to only silver coins or any "finds"  I am mainly a Lincoln Cent Roll Hound and I get rolls of cents by the box from local banks. I have not found a silver coin in a long,long time  John1  |

I don't really "find" much. My time for CRH is limited so I do not do it that often but the best thing I have ever gotten from a bank was a 1979-S TII SBA, not much silver though(only 40% Kennedys). My best circulation finds are a Wheat cent here and there and a couple silver War Nickels many years ago. Almost everything I obtain these days is purchased, most often from my local coin shop and its bid board but I also buy some online as well as at shows too. |

Hi,
I have a tough time with this question in that sometimes for me roll searching and bank teller would go hand in hand. Many times a teller will save rolls for me if they are unusual.
I, of course get my coins roll searching but bank tellers play a huge part in that.
A perfect example is that a Franklin and two 1964 Kennedys turned up yesterday in one roll of halves that a teller saved for me.
Thanks,
Bill

I got a Miller light bottle of Cents today. It's going to take me a while to get through them all. The bottle weighs 55 lbs.

Lately tellers have been productive for me for halves. Last week I picked up $100 in 40% Kennedy's from a couple tellers. One said she had been waiting for me to come in. She handed me 6 solid rolls all had dates written on the side including 65, 66, 67, 68 and 69. The teller was quite happy to "get rid of these things"  - Later at another bank I picked up 7 rolls which produced the other 4 rolls of 40% coins along with a mixed roll of franklin and 64s. Later that day I went through 4 boxes of halves and found a few but the road trip gave me more than I will likely find for the whole month of searching boxes. Customer rolls are where you will likely hit it big but it seems to only happen about once a month for me. Maine_Jim |
