Never thought this would happen....

After seeing thousands of marked coins I decided a few weeks ago to mark my own coins. So I marked about 10 of them and put them in a local coin machine. Low and behold I got one back today when searching. That was quick. Never thought I would see this day so soon.

I have recieved mine back too, someone just searched your dumps and dumped them back into your carrier, it's a wierd cycle. HH, Maverick.

I think the coin couriers handle the coins on a last in, first out basis, so this doesn't surprise me.

Oh yeah, I had a couple of my coins today, I know they were from february boxes because of the color I used.

my marked coins take as little as 2 weeks to recirculate... it's amazing how fast they are back in circulation, but most of my coins take 3-4 months for me to see them again at 2 boxes of halves a week.

I found one of mine, said 50 on it, in a CWR.

Why would they use old boxes to replenish their supply when they can repack new boxes? They can reduce new CRHers that way too.

That's spot on. You could dump one day, somebody buys them as CWR the next day, then dump them into your supply the following day. If you are doing a buy from Supplier #1 > dump in Supplier #2 cycle, and they are on the opposite cycle (i.e. they dump where you buy) then you could get them back fairly quickly. I think that's also where the big skunk streaks come from, if there is a volume hunter (or multiple ones) on the opposite cycle as yourself.
