Paper or Plastic

[mike315]

Hi I've read these boards for quite some time but never posted. I work at a local grocery store where I work in the cash office. I find a lot of silver coins at work especially dimes. Brinks used to bring us our rolled changed in plastic wrappers. I could easily scan a whole box of dime or quarters for silver in seconds. Now brinks went back to paper wrappers so I wont be able to find silver as easily. What does most of your rolls come in? I know most halves probably come in paper wrappers.

Mike,

Welcome to TreasureNet. Glad you are here with us. This is a great site. When I get rolls of quarters from the bank, it is usually 50 - 50 (50% of the time they come in paper wrappers). Hope it helps. My bank still accepts the paper wrappers and still give them out to customers for free as well.

plastic: penny - nickel - dime - quarter
paper: half


I never get these: new dollars or quarters but I think I have seen only paper

My brinks coins come are still in plastic at this time except halves
other banks I have bought from were paper
