Amazing!!!! You would think that someone at the boxing factory would notice a hoard going into the hopper. But, their ignorance is your gain!!!

Nice haul there C-n-C. With my luck this month maybe I should give dimes a try.

All month long I've seen a massive increase of different sorter's marks on halves. Small concise blue dots, black smuges, the number "513" what that stand for who knows, M's, and two straight lines. Hopefully some of these folks will get discouraged and quit before long.
