Man, you pull a lot of silver from those teller trays. LOL. I hardly ever see silver in teller tray boxes. :icon_thumleft:

Any luck with those Dunbar dime boxes other than new coins? I haven't tried the paper dime rolls yet. I hardly ever look at Coinstar machines but perhaps I should. Everytime I looked, there was nothing in the reject tray.

What's the King George V Canadian cent date on the bottom left? I do like those old King George V's. Too bad one can't exchange foreign coins for U.S. money. Currency only. Canadians and Euros are ok in my book since the Canadians are worth about the same and Euros a little more. Still waiting one day to go on a trip so I can release them back to where they came from.

Did they have those 2 boxes left over as part of an old batch? I had my bad string of clear wrap coins too. I'm really not into doing paper wrapped rolls of dimes. Strangely I don't mind paper rolls of cents though. I have a box of Dunbar cents that I plan on re-using the wrappers for copper cents. I re-crimp wrap the ends which takes a lot of work believe it or not to make it look like new. There is an art to it.

The banks I got them from havent switched to Dunbars yet. Im not looking forward to paper wraps like you I can check a clear wrap box in 20 minutes or so, dump them and move on. I dont like wasting time opening and rewrapping 100 rolls especially if they are junk

My dumping bank is a TDbank, their coins machine has a magnetic tray that take all the foreign coins. It is ok to take that coins when I am dumping? I know this is a silly question but since this is a bank I don't know if it is ok. I am new on this.

One time I was cleaning the magnet off and the branch manager said "that's not yours" I replied "Well, it isn't yours either. Besides, how do you know it didn't come out of what I just dropped in there?"
She looked at me like I had two heads and walked away.

If you ask they will likely tell you no.
I don't ask.

I dump at a CU and I always ask for the magnet coins and they always give them to me. I would have not even be able to take them out without opening the machine as they are deep inside the machine.
