You might be addicted to CRHing if......

You call one of the local armored car courier services to inquire about buying boxes of halves directly from them. A "friend" of mine tried this today, and was told that they cannot do this. That they only handle coins from institutions with a federal reserve bank account, or something like that.

This "friend" also verified that when coins are picked up by the courier, they go into a "pool" of coins and are all mixed together. Thus, they do not roll the exact coins they pick up and re-deliver those same exact coins to the bank. So the notion that buying from your dump bank is not going to yield keepers seems to be a false one. I guess you could still get the tellers mad by buying one day and dumping the next.

Your right Jim. It can also make new rules for us CRHers. Buy at one, dump at another. It should be a Code of Honor amongst us "Silver Thieves"

True buying and dumping at the same bank can still yield keepers, but you also have a better chance of looking at the same coins numerous times. Having your dump bank be different from your pickup bank also only helps if they use a different armored service.
