Half Dollar Box Question

that's a good idea, but the casino stuff has already been sorted through pretty well, from what my sources tell me.

The casino is my favorite place to take a dump.

Imagine, after all these years of them dumping on me, I finally get to return the favor!

toddstep. Are you kidding me? What a fabulous bunch of finds. My banks almost never have halves (say that fast) and when they have a roll or two that have been picked through. I can tell because a few coins have red dots and the rolls have a black line down the side. LUCKY YOU !

I had all the banks in my area tell me no cause I was not a member but the one I'm a member at told me they can get them only in $1000 bags lol

There is a bank in a nearby town that I visited a few times. I have an account with that chain. Of all the banks I have been to, they are far and above the snottiest when I ask for rolls of halfs. The first time I got 15 or so rolls, then only 2 or 3 each time. They ask if I have an account, and always look it up. Even the same teller I talked to more than once.

The last time I was in there and she asked if I had an account I said "Yes, just like last week when you asked me. Would it matter if I did not?"

"We like to keep our half dollars for our best customers!" was her curt reply.

I have been in at least 20 banks asking for halves lately, and have been asked that question only 3 times. At the 2 which I did not have an account with I still got coins. One of them said to open an account so they could order boxes for me!

I just got done looking through my first $100 of rolls.

I got a lot of Bicentennial Half Dollars. Though I did find a 1969 Half Dollar! I also found this really shiny and great condition 1986 Half Dollar. But for my first try at Coin Roll Hunting I'm very happy with find a 1969!

scott I had the same situation with a certain rather large national chain bank. now, I use them as my dump bank. they don't like me now, but hey they were snotty before anyway so it's a win/win for me.
