I think that you should have searched the customer wrap coins. You never know if they were just from an estate and the heirs just wanted to get rid of all of his Kennedy halves. Some people were just collecting all Kennedy halves because they thought that they were going to discontinue the half or some other bizarre reason, so for all you know there could have been some interesting or rare halves in that box.
Great hunt! How does your bank require you to return your halves? My bank now requires me to rewrap my coins to return them. What does your bank do with the returned coins, send them back or do they have to keep them? One of my bank branches wouldn’t allow me to return them because they take up too much space in their vault!
i went through about 25-30 boxes of customer re-wraps and got no silver from any of them, until recently i got a box that looked like customer re-wraps but it had about 20 silvers in it. dont really know what to think now lol.
I have yet to go to the bank and request rolls of coins. Being new to this…….Do you carry enough cash for all these coins, or do you ask the teller to take money out of your account to pay for your boxes of rolled coins? I would like to get dollar coins and half dollar boxes.
What actually makes a proof coin? Just the fact that it looks brand new? Were the gold plated ones something the mint did as a special release or just some 3rd party company decided to gold plate them? Do you know of any "cheat sheets" to know which coins to look for by denomination and year?
Gold plated are done 3rd party, use so little gold that dose not increase value, in fact I consider it devalue of the coin because alternating the surface of the coin. Same as painting or cleaning coins devalue. Atleast us coins.
"proof" coins usually have the "S" mint mark - it has a slightly different minting process for mint sets - the value might be a little higher, but not that much
If you can make it over to PA, Jonestown Bank lets you order coins but it's $1,000 minimum. They do free checking accounts too so you could just open one and put money in then they order the currency and you pick it up. My last two boxes of half dollars from them were like the first smaller boxes in this video. Same wrappers even.
once upon a time ago - silver was at $50 an ounce - EVERYBODY cherry picked EVERYTHING !! .... youtube scammers edit videos all the time !! .... you'd make more money having a part time REAL job
Did you ever think that those custom ramps are just a coin wrapping machine failing at the on the left or right side nobody would go through all that trouble of Roland those ends back over like that they were simply fold them if they were custom and I have gotten those and what appears to be a brinks sealed box and it’s filled with Custom wrap rolls so what might be happening is the bank ships and back to bring and they simply ship them back out without auditing them which is a problem needs that they’re not doing their job but if it’s still in the black-and-white, strike rolls and even though the end seem kind of sloppy it’s just a malfunctioning wrapping machine it’s still rolled over why would you spend all that timetrying to fake that they were machine wrap that’s just maniacal
That’s exactly what they are. There’s several banks in my area that will let people return full boxes of half dollars customer wrapped, and then the various places don’t audit them.
I’ve gone through 8 sealed boxes in a row with no silver 😂
Great hunt my man. 👊🏼
Keep hitting them and you’ll find some
The great thing is even if you don't find any silver you didn't lose any money that's the great thing about hunting rolls
Nice, found silver and NIFCs. Beautiful Ellis Island commemorative. Congrats.
Great hunt!! Thank you!!

I agree. I’ve found a bunch of silver and proofs in customer wrapped rolls.
Or people like me that goofed and didn't know there were 40% silvers or proof coins to be had. I was just looking for 1964 and prior...oops. lol.
Same, my bank usually only has customer wrapped coins, and I’ve found bout 9 40% and 2 90%
I haven't found any silver halves from my boxes lately but congrats on the lucky hunt.

Will you be posting more content? I really enjoy your hunts!
Very respectable boxes
GREETINGS FROM ST CLOUD MINNESOTA USA 🇺🇸
Nice boxes. My best box was similar to one of them. 11 proofs which 2 were the Ellis islands. 13 1987’s. But only 2 silver.
Nice hunt
nice hunting like you video
Do you bring back all12 boxes to the same bank all at once?
Do you ever get pushback?
All to the same bank and they don’t complain
@@TampaCoinGuy do you wrap them or do they do it?

I really do wonder if sometimes the machines are just that bad at wrapping
Those brinks rolls are just really sloppy lately. Those aren’t from customers.
What did the rolls weigh? Were there coins missing from the re-wrapped rolls?
How do you go about returning them to your drop bank
You sound like actor Steve Buscemi.
Is their demand for 40% silver half dollars??
I have a local dealer that buys them off of me for fairly close to melt.
But not a lot of demand, heck before Christmas I couldn’t even sell 90%
@@TampaCoinGuy Thank you for reply. Fun to watch videos
@@TampaCoinGuy Oh I c
Coin hunters, what do you do with all of the .50 coins that you dont keep? How do you dispose of them?
You take them to the bank and either exchange for more or get cash

I keep enough in my account to cover it every week

gold-plated coins are completely worthless
I’m in New Jersey and I can’t find a bank that has enough half and one dollar coins to even get a roll or two

Will you tell bank about possible tellers
Nice
How do you rewrap them back into the paper?
there is a special machine they use - with new paper ....(EBAY has it)
Do you profit off of doing this? Could you give a rough number of what you make off doing this??
