There are so many things we can learn from marked and marking coins , especially in an area like westchester ny. there are many different banks that use coin machines and at least 3 differnt types of boxes that i can get halves . By knowing whose coins are marked and where they or me dump i can start learning patterns of things.By getting marked coins in unmarked customer wrappers i can get a good idea that i just picked up a dump. Where as i dont like picking up a dump i like less not knowing if it is a dump or not.

Back in February I marked a whole box of halves with 2/12 on the obverse. About a month ago I gave JFK a curled moustache on about 200 coins.
i follow a strict dumping routine and never pickup from where I dump and vice versa. But last month I found about 5 of my 2/12 coins in a box from one of my big pickup banks. These were dumped at a specific bank that I use strictly for dumping, not just a branch here or there, but the entire company. Go figure...

TimZim is in NJ, not in NY. I don't think he is near NYC.
1/100 of an American dollar is a cent. It is NOT a penny. The word penny is used by several other countries, such as Great Britain, to denote their smallest denomination. In order to be numismatically correct, you must use the term cent to describe the American coin.

I've never heard anyone mention this, but don't the markings wear off? I've found halves with colored laser paint almost totally worn off, which doesn't bode well for a mere sharpie mark.
Last appearance in pocket change:
Wheat penny: 1944-S (2/25/18)
Silver: 1963-D dime (2/14/18)

the marks do wear off over time, though should last quite some time, long enough for you to likely get your half dollars a few times... i've gotten a few of my OLDER half dollar marks back, kind of weird since back then I marked about 30 or so, and have gotten some of the same coins back several times, could be explaining my skunk boxes too...

You have to tone the color down to make it look like real silver.

Sometimes, after getting skunked on a few boxes, I get a little frustrated... so I have taken those nice shiny 2011 halves that I've come across (oddly enough, there have been a LOT of them) and write NIFC on the obverse in big letters. Other times, I give Kennedy a big "smiley face" on some of those gem uncirculated 1976 or 1971's I come across. I've seen dots in ears on a lot of mine and I cant help but wonder who that is!!
