One Way to track down a Bank box of Half Dollars?

joeykoins

Hi guys,
Yes, lately it's been pretty difficult to find any bank that, not only has a box available, but to find a bank that will allow you to have one. Most of my banks don't, anyway. The one I recently captured was from a bank (BMO) that I don't have an account with. I ordered it one week ago. They provided. Only because I have a credit card by them.
Besides on waiting and finding a bank that WILL order one.
Here a quicker way. Chase Banks, allow a max. of 10 rolls. If you don't have an account with them.
If you do, then they might provide even more at one visit.
So, here's my plan to find an equivalent to One Whole Box!
I would visit 5 different Chase banks.

10x5= 50 Rolls/ Box

Good Luck guys.

Oh, forgot to mention.
The only way to do this effienciently is in my case, I work 35 miles away. I pass at least 7 Chase Banks. Lol.
Gas prices today and going to bank to bank out of your way. Wouldn't make financial sense.
Thanks guys

I have two banks that will order boxes for me, still no problem as of this date. I have been doing other things so have not put any time for CRH. I do have multiple accounts in each so there is that. Cheers.

Maybe, soon things will be back to normal?
Maybe???

Maybe I will see if I can get a box - or boxes - in this area. If I can, then I can sell them here on the forum.... Just joking guys... Cheers, RickO

My local bank is limiting to 2 rolls of anything. Went in for wrappers the other day and the lady thought I was asking for rolls and told me the limit.

I need to get out and check my bank.
I have not picked up a sealed box of anything in a very long time.

I'm surprised they would even want half dollars on hand. They just don't circulate. Do the half dollars you usually obtain appear to be commercial rolls or are they customer rolled coins? Which type has proven best for finding silver?

Best way to find silver would be to buy a 40% roll from eBay...

I would say the non customer wrapped. The customer wrapped are more likely to had been searched through already. Probably, no varieties, no errors, no W's and most certainly no SILVER. More likely, not impossible.
It's funny you mention this. The other day, I purchased a whole bank box, ordinary wrapped, of half dollars. Only found 2 40% Kennedys. Yesterday, went to a bank, and they only had 2 customer wrapped rolls. One roll, nothing. But the other roll, 3, yes 3, 40 % Kennedys! So, it's all luck and a crap shoot. Good Luck
