CLEAR WRAPPERS ARE THEY THE NORM?

[Davers]

I'm not a hardcore CRH but I like to grab a few roll's whenever I think about it, anyway I went into a B.o Amer, branch and asked for some dimes and when the teller gave them to me I noticed they were Clear Wrapped [ i,m looking for silver] so almost instantly could tell there was no silver coins in the wrappers .[no fun searching those rolls] is there certain banks or places that use this type of wrapper that I should avoid? Thanks Davers

Also, Davers, don't be so sure that there isn't silver just because there is no apparent bright silver rim. There are plenty of dirty rims that need closer scrutiny.

Looks like Christmas came early. Thanks for the pic, DD. Best pic on Tnet.

That is a sight for sore eyes, DD. I just went through 8 SKUNK boxes of dimes, none of them were brinks clear wrapped though and none of the boxes were solid 2013 either.

I do need to update the silver p0rn as the picture is old, but there is nothing wrong in vintage p0rn.

Nice, I never get tired of that pic DD! HH, Maverick.

I'll second the motion about dirty/stained rims. I date check all my dimes, even the ones in plastic wrap from Brinks (in which I have found several). Keep stacking.

I hate plastic tubes just based on how hard they are to open at work. When I am CRHing I can use the tip of a knife to slice them over. Can't do that at work. You have to bend and twist the tube enough to push the coins out. So annoying. when emptying them, I check my sight and sound when doing dimes and quarters just for the dirty rim issue. Also I find that war nicks and buffs make a different sound that newer nickels.
