Can someone tell me how to get my bank to order boxes of new pennies?

I thought someone once explained the process.

edit: Nor should they do so. Same thing with dollar coins. Otherwise the coins just sit around the vault taking up space.

When a banks orders change they get what ever is available form thier source.

that and bribes... generous bribes....

a branch mgr. told me that, but I wonder if that wasn't just a good way to try get rid of me (us)...
offer to pay any fees.

absolutely,,, how good of a customer are you? Don't wear out your welcome... tread lightly....

It was I...
search for my thread with the word "Score" in it....
I also sent you a PM once on it.
(and the Fed Res. is already saying they will not guarantee order for boxes of quarters will be America the Beautiful Quarters.... they stopped after the Territories. However, they still guarantee the pres. dollars. as can be seen on their web site listed in the other thread.

I definitely know they pay for coin deliveries... that is obvious... it's a service they have contracted for with the armored car companies.
However, I can't confirm they have to pay extra for ordering new coin or new currency....
My bank used to tell me they just had to make a call to do it.... they never mentioned an extra fee as part of the extra trouble. It was another branch mgr. that told me it was an extra fee for it.
....first thing you should do is open an account at a bank in puerto rico!

It seems it is easy to get new coin in PR.

That's why I said "additional". The bank, specifically the vault manager, makes the request for newly minted coinage to the supplier. Either they fulfill it or they don't.
I did manage to get 123 boxes of lincoln number 2 and 3 that were all uncs. Last i looked they were only bringing about 40 bucks or less on ebay so i just use them to weight the safe down.

wow! one hundred twenty three ??? wow!
many will order boxes specifically for you
some will request the coins do not come back to them
many will say their source can not guarantee any year as the rolls are part of the circulation 'mix' that gets delivered
and only topped off with new stuff when they need to
and the new stuff could be from a few years ago

Being married to one I can tell you I have a better chance of getting a cup of coffee from her than a roll.
And the chances are the coffee wont be hot either.

Ouch!!!
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
Usually every other time i order some boxes i give some candy like a bag of Hersey kisses.
Just to show that i appreciate all the hassle. I know they are doing me a favor for ordering boxes of coins.
I dont order too many boxes - its like 3-4 boxes every few months. Sometimes I feel bad because the teller has to go to the safe, have to fill out a form for the withdrawal, the safe is in the back of the bank, she then wheels her chair to the back to move the boxes of coins to the counter because they are too heavy for her. also, i try not to stop by on a Friday which is payday for many.
