Terms and Advice

[retire05]

So, I see a couple of terms regularly and I'm not exactly sure what it is. CWR - does that stand for Customer Wrapped Roll meaning some Joe off the street wrapped his or her coins into rolls? If that is accurate, what the heck is a MWR?
Next question, I've done quite a bit of box ordering with really only 1 score, but it was a HUGE score. As far as getting loose rolls from the bank, what advice do you all have; do loose rolls, boxes, or a combination of both? Thoughts?...Brad

Do both. MWR means machine wrapped, which is what you get in boxes.

Per your second question brad always buy them all. Or at least all the money you have with.

Thanks for the advice and clarification. I have only done boxes in the past, but I will try to mix it up and see what I can do...Brad

I switched from mwr to cwr only because I had access to large amounts of coin, and chances of finding solid silver rolls are better. It's not too difficult to find banks that take in large amounts of customer-rolled coin, have them save it for you so it doesn't get shipped out.

I can search and re-roll $5 in (dimes) in less than 10 seconds. I return them rolled to the dump bank and never take a hit like what may happen with a coin counter.
