Yesterday I went to one of my buy banks to get two boxes of halves. The teller brought them out and the vault manager who orders the coin followed her out. He introduced himself and said that I and another customer were ordering quite a lot of half dollars. He then said that he was willing to order all the coins I wanted and added that he had decided just to order $6000+ in halves every week until told otherwise.

Sweet!

However, the two boxes that I was given looked like the end had been torn open slightly. However, the rolls were intact and the boxes were full, so I took them. I later thought that he might have opened them when they came in just to see if there were any enders. (I have never gotten an "ender" from this bank.) I was really wondering why he was so happy to order more boxes for me.

Anyway, this is what I got from the two boxes:

Box #1:
1- 1964
1- 1968
Box #2:
1-1966

This is about average for this particular bank, so all was well in the end.

Sounds good. Just don't overuse it and make him regret his decision. PLus make sure you can dump that many as they come in.

Good bank though. :icon_thumleft:
 
Most head tellers like to be sure that all the rolls are in a box before selling it, and some will open each box to make sure it's full. They are usually the ones that have experienced boxes being short of rolls before. The ones I deal with now will wait until I am present and open it in front of me.

Went back yesterday and got two more boxes of halves. One was a skunk but the other had two 1966s. I'll take that.

I will get at least two more boxes today and report what I find.
