I have a question? I have 2 source banks for picking up pennies. This week my 1 source bank only had String boxes of 2010 shield cents ( I picked up 1 box of those to put away but don't ask me why). My other source bank didn't order and I was only able to get 1 Brinks box. So yesterday I went on a bank run. The 1st bank gave me 1 Brinks box. Bank 2 had a coin counter in it but they said they were not allowed to sell the bags and they didn't have boxes but the teller gave me $10.00 in CWR all she had. I think I'm going to open a free checking account at this bank and use it as a dump bank because of the coin counter. Bank 3 a branch of 1 of my dump banks gave me a box that looked like a String box with the holes in the box but the rolls aren't red and white they are brown rolled wraped with red printing no name anywhere on the box or rolls. Could anyone tell me what these could be?
Thank You
Joe
