[cwgii]

now that i started work..... have money , but no time to sort.

took my pay as coins ......

175$ dimes--- 2 mexican 10centers.. a penny,,,,,,,

silver ,,, 63,64. BUT I WOULD HAVE MISSED THE 63 , EDGE SORTING. i only got it because i look at the edge, then put them on my cottage cheese --sorting tray.

i dont do dimes all that often. too hard to see. but silver has a way of making me do things.

cashed in the 175 . only got shorted 2 dimes, besides the trash.

got another 115$--- skunked, which is more what i would expect.

16 $ teller tray halves---- n1965

54$ loose and rolled halves--- 1967

$500 Brink's Box of halves

4 40% SILVER JFK halves - '67,'68D,'69D(2)
9 Clad NIFCs - '02D(2),'03P,'04P,'05P,'05D,'07P,'09D,'10D
1 50c from Panama - '09

I got an interesting note from my credit union vault manager. The Brink's delivery guy told my CU that I was wasting my time ordering halves. He left a note for me to call the coin manager at the local Brink's facility. Could BRINK'S be pulling the SILVER out at the same time that they roll the halves? Does Brink's have machines that do this? From my first box, I can see that it is not 100% accurate. Perhaps they have some employees doing it by handsorting. Anybody run into this? Should I make the call, or just keep ordering more halves?

Have you found out anything yet???
