Hi everyone,
I've been reading posts for a few months now and thought it was time to post my self and ask a few of those nagging questions. I have been CRHing for about 9 months now. No big successes like some of you all except that i have all my books filled. A few questions i Just wanna make clear CWR means customer wrapped rolls?? I want to go on a road trip this friday and have no idea how to ask the tellers? I want the ones wrapped by customers or what?? Ive been to many banks and asked for halves with some success but non that except customer wrapped rolls, I do live in a big city.
Also i get string boxes the most but it seems every bank i go to around here has the same number 3539 does this mean they are all coming from the same coin vault.
Any one every use US bank I have never found a silver piece only clad
PS
I hate when banks start charging you fees for coins. Ill never pay extra money for money

THanks
Drew F.

Interesting.

You say you have been CRH'g for 9 months and have filled all your books.? How many books we talking about? What books? pennies nickles dimes quarters halves?

Customer wrapped rolls. Rolls not rolled by a machine. Simple enough.

"3539" If you are searching a tight area big city or not. it is being serviced buy one facility. For instance here in the Detroit area. My "string" boxes are coming out of the Loomis facility in Detroit and they serve southeastern Mi. We also have a Brinks serving the same district. the next Loomis facility is 100 miles away. If your not sure and want to know, you can google this information by looking up Loomis Brinks or other carriers in your area and see how many branches they have and assume the coverage area. there are only 3 Loomis facility's in MI.

3539 - Sounds like Milwaukee/SE Wisconsin.

Wow that is impressive! I have been doing CRH for a couple years now and don't have anywhere near all my books filled from 64 up. Still need my 1970 half, 2011 halves. Need my 1970 small date cent (probably several other cents too) Dimes are good from 65 up (not counting the west point dime), I know I still need a 2009 D nickel. I have only like 5 franklins in that set, nowhere near complete. Very good hauls you've had! I don't have any proofs in my collection either, so I guess it depends on what "books" you are filling. I've been working on my whitman albums since I was a kid.
