    Well the feds get real interested above $9999.99. Most likely a few questions and a big 🚩. Beyond that is referring to cash bills. Coins you will want to develop a relationship with a bank it seems like anywhere from $50. - $2 or300 hundred.

    Depends on the teller, the bank, the timing and YOU ;-)

    Also depends if the coins are raw or rolled. Most banks will take as many rolls as you have if you are depositing them. One of my banks does not take rolled coins, only raw coins and they run them through a coin counter.

    Depends on whether they are handed out in rolls are individually counted coins. Your status as a customer is also a consideration.

    I get $2000 in halves, $1000 in quarters and $200 in nickels every week. But I have a VERY good understanding with my banks.

    @MarkKelley ... Wow.... That is a lot of searching each week.... Sounds like you do it full time. Cheers, RickO

    My bank will not order me any boxes of coin.

    they are currently limited on what they can order, often not enough to support their commercial customers. However, if this continues after the current "coin shortage" I would bank at numerous locations. I have a credit union that supplies me six new boxes of quarters a week. I enjoy selling them back to the other banks in need who supported my roll searching over the past two years.

    Is roll hunting really lucrative or is it more that you enjoy doing it? I imagine a combination of both, but just wondering how much that work pays off in a year.
