Potentially EPIC bag of halves from coin counter

[namster]

Received a call from a branch of a bank I have accounts with, saying they heard from a manager of another branch that I buy halves. The manager of this branch said the bag on their machine recently filled and she said I could have dibs buying it before she shipped it out. The branch is 40 min away, so I was hesitant to go out that way to get it, the manager said "sir, you really should come out for this bag of coin." Interesting...

So, I cancel my office hours and drive out there. Long story short, the freakin bag is loaded. Driving back to town I took a few handfuls and each time I saw 2-3 90% rims along with some 40%. I dumped the coin in a plastic bin and took the pic below, hard to tell but there are a bunch of 64s sitting on the top, along with a WL and some 40%. Ill update the post with a total, Im hoping for $50 face in 90%, that would be cool. HH everyone!

I have never bought a bag from a bank I am not a member of, I have tried though, they always say no. I have healthy accounts with the banks that do sell me bags. I am also very clear to the manager that I will:

A) Not, under any circumstance, bring the coins back to them.

B) Not complain if the bag is under.

- I use a 25 kilo scale to weigh the bag to be reasonably sure it is filled accurately.

Sweet find! I asked about buying boxes from my credit union and they said that there would be fee for ordering and taxes since they order directly from the fed. My jaw just about dropped when I heard that. I mean come on. Has anyone else heard of this before? If anything I will be ordering boxes from my workplace on a regular basis if this is true. or worse comes to worse, head into town and find banks that will order boxes.

They don't order from the Fed, they order from a coin processing company.

No, I don't think anyone's ever experienced a bank trying to charge a fee for a box of coins before. Ever.

Wow, that's awesome! I'm waiting for the bag at my branch to fill up (as of last week it was $900 short, so that'll be a while...). I'd kill for it to have 10% of that!
