Gosh, there is a lot in conversation going on with this topic. In my area there must be a ton of hunters, as i am finding tons of different marks all the time, but that the first bad saying. there are different color side marks, gold, red, blue, black front marks, numbers on coins, initials, you name it, it's there! I have been doing halfs for many years, but I haven't stepped up the volume until about 5 years ago. My home bank the one that is closest to me I was the only one doing this (ordering) but now there are three people the manager orders for. and the bank that is in the city next to me there about 15 people who get or dump coins!! When all is said and done, to me it doesn't matter how many silver I get, it matters how much fun I had doing this. I am not stressed out about somebody else at my bank or me at their bank. It's just a hobby. Although I know for sure that some of my bank managers don't like the silver hunters that want to make a buck, versus the ones who collect it all, I take it all to heart and enjoy the excitement of not knowing what your getting!!
