I just called the 800 number for one of my dump banks. I asked if any branch has a coin counter. The operator called around and said the main branch about 7 miles away has one.

She also added that the bank teller she spoke with, at that branch, said if I brought in any coins that they MUST ALL BE CLEAN! :o because dirty coins break the counter. >:(

I was not calling because I wanted to dump coins. My local branches (2) of this bank want me to bring my rejects in to them loose in bags. I want to see if I can buy the bags when they are full. Now I need to track down a local number for them. They only have that one 800 number for every branch in the country.

AFTER LUNCH UPDATE
Well I tracked down the local number and called and the head teller answered.

The counter is still broken and they are waiting on a repairman. The reason it is broken is that many quarters are being put in the susan anthony $1 bag and being counted as $1 :o

We got to talking and she said she collects coins too. But she wanted to know if 1964 was the last date silver was issued. Of course I said yes. ::) Then I told her I also buy old silver coins and that I pay 6-7 times face value in cash. She became very interested. ;D We will talk later because she said she had a lot of coins.

She will also sell me all the half dollar and penny bags this saturday. So far one of each, but the half $$ bag is $360.

Some banks are that way. Most banks out here do not have counters. I only know of two and one is not open on Saturday.

Both are behind closed doors counters and they will not even let me watch them run my coins. Doesn't matter because these guys are several miles away. I use the local branches of these banks to dump almost everything. I bring all coins in the big plastic bags that they furnish. Can't complain.
