Todays finds! Need Id on forgin,China maybe? Also warning to other CRH in CO

[jewelerdave]

First bank was a bummer, went on a short road trip, some other CRH beat me by just an hour at a small town bank.
At least I cleared out the surrounding banks the week before, just missed this one.

Also found out that someone is breaking a CRH rule and is making it hard for everyone.
One bank said they will now only sell $100 of halves a day to "A" customer because and this is right from the tellers Mouth "people are going though and pulling the silver and taking them back to deposit"
Thanks Idiot. Take it to a different bank To dump, your making it hard on yourself and others. And why the heck are you telling people that that is what your doing? Its pretty easy to open up a small account at a dump bank or branch that does not deal with halves and sends them to the fed. its easy to do and does not get bureaucracy involved. Talk about cutting your own throat!
So this is a warning to anyone hunting in CO.
If you dont want me to spike a bunch of skunk boxes around at different banks dont go cutting our throats and giving us a bad name. I do have scales accurate enough that I can weight out the rolls and the difference in weight will tell me even if there is just one %40 in there. Or silver, I can put these skunk boxes all over the place and Only I am going to know, At the rate I am going at about $8000 to $12000 worth of halves a week I can put a pretty big stock of bad boxes around and the banks wont order new boxes(exept what I order) if they have a bunch on hand in the vaults and they will add up! And it will be skunks and nothing but. I am sorry but if you take the fun and opportunity of of good CRH I can do the same and give ya hours of wasted gas and time chasing down opportunities that are not there. JUST DUMP AT A BANKS THAT YOUR NOT GETTING THEM FROM AND DONT GIVE AWAY WHAT YOUR DOING AT THE SAME TIME!

Anyway todays hunt went well.

China was a good guess Dave: 1 yuan, 1984. 35th anniversary of the People's Republic. The opposite side kinda looks like there are fireworks in the sky around a wreath? Ah, the irony of finding commie money while looking for silver. Great find!

 

[jewelerdave]

one yuan.
Man I got screwed on that one. I guess I should keep it LOL it may be our currency at the rate things are going! yeah it has the fireworks. Pretty coin for a communist system that wanted to ban art...oh the irony.

Thanks,

David

I'm in the middle of a FED box like you spoke of- the end opened, when I cut the top off there is indeed 50 rolls but ain't found nothin in it yet. There was also 2 sealed boxes there- hopefully they's better. Did that bank say they had $1900 earlier in the day? It's not me dumping right back into them banks. HH Mark

 

[jewelerdave]

I know you would not dump back into the same banks mark, Where are you located?
