I have seen them [the pallets], they do exist. That is all I'm saying.

Hi, Dr, do you know how many coins in the pallet?

My guess is $10K for halves. Any comments from anyone?

No it's more than that. I'm really not saying much as frankly my job would be on the line if I said too much. The amount should be something researchable online though I would think.

OK, I found it online so it is public information. I don't want the Secret Service to knock on my door either. The pallet should hold as much as 2.5 ton, that equals to $100K of halves. Now the question is: how many pallets of coins have you gone through?

15 boxes a week, 52 weeks a year x 4 years = 3120 boxes x $500 = $1,560,000.00

Hmmmmm sounds about right.

I'm not even counting loose or hand rolls here. I could go through a couple of thousand on a all day road trip.

I could also run through a couple of thousand a week in Dimes, Nickles & Quarters.

I've heard people talk about "The Pallets" at the Federal Reserve. Has anybody ever seen these legendary pallets? Are they at the Fed? Loomis? Brinks?
I have been personally taken on a tour of a local armored car company after I bought two bags of BIG dollars from them.

During the tour he pointed of the Bank of America Vault. :o Inside were pallets covered in canvas tarps. The "vault" was a chainlink fenced enclosure inside their high security truck loading area. It had a chainlink door with a padlock :laughing7:
