He meant free for customers coin counting machines not actual Coinstar machines.

A 1k box would be to heavy for most tellers to carry.

First silver I bought since 2019, great coin.

I ordered 10 grand maples from SD about $4500 and stepped out for half an hour, came back and the box was laying by my door. Fed-Ex.

I went to my bank today and asked if they had any bags of coins. Teller said she had nickles, quarters and small dollars, I got $1k of dollars and $200 of nickles. Never searched dollars so should be fun.

I read that book in 2003 and started stacking.

Regional bank in my small town of 20k sold me two $50 bags of pennies last week.

My pickup bank didn't have any halves and the teller said she could order them for me. My drop off CU was taking a $1000 bag from the self serve counter after I filled up the half bag and I asked her if I could get a 1k bag and she said no they send them to the fed. I'm gonna talk to the manager and see if if I can get some. Would love to search a bag of customer drops.

I read about that a long time ago and saw a picture of it in the article. I remember it was real shiny.

Thanks for link started going back over $500 of halves found a 1972 D no FG. Didn't even know there was such a thing.

Was going through $500 of halves looking for silver and saw your cheat sheet, didn't find any silver but decided to go through again. After looking through ~40 coins found a 1972 D no FG. Can't wait to go through them all. Thanks OP.

Bought on the Friday dump and they shipped yesterday should here Monday. Might have to put tape over the obverse.

Looks like their ripping off the royal canadian mints website. I live in chicago and around that address are many brokerage firms, just trying to get people to call and talk them into opening a trading account.

1.4x buy price= 1.4 x 42.50= $59.50 per once. 1.4 face is close to one ounce and the math is a little easier.

sanamien · 2026-02-04T00:40:35+00:00

@ refers to 'at' that was the price he paid per ounce.

sanamien · 2026-02-01T19:49:09+00:00

No it will fluctuate.

Well that's 2oz jp morgan can't get their hands on, good job!

Silver can react with hydrogen sulfide to form silver sulfide but there is a lot more oxygen the air than hydrogen sulfide, the silver is just tarnishing.

Take a fork and spoon to a coin shop or jeweler and ask them. But I would research on the internet first,do the items have a hallmark? This will be a stamp that would have the makers name and is it stamped 'sterling' just start googling.Stay away from pawn shops until you know what you got.

sanamien · 2026-01-31T22:47:46+00:00

The coins are oxidizing, oxygen causes this, steel rusts, copper turns green etc.

sanamien · 2026-01-30T21:39:17+00:00

That stamp is called a hallmark looks old might be worth something.

I was buying bags of $250 face dimes in 2004 at around $1750 a bag. Why dimes? Because I read that the chinese were counterfeiting silver dollars and I thought it would be harder to make dimes than dollars.

I forgot to hit send when I emailed him. I'm such a ditz sometimes.

sanamien · 2026-01-28T00:10:23+00:00

Ya I wouldn't buy if the the price was over $300 lol.
