Nothing to report this week in halves this is the second week in a row my bank didn't get any boxes of halves in for me. They said they ordered them but Brinks didn't drop any off.

$400 niks. 2 boxes and $200 bag from a counter, and new source.
2-WN
1-No date buf
I met a couple copper coin hounds at a local bank branch. (tellers, young men)
They sniffed me out after a series 2 box nickel pickups.
They have a Ryedale and at least one home made sorter and great enthusiasm.
They have a local bag source and I hope to connect to some halves this way.
I pointed them here, time will tell.
