I was just wondering if I would normally need to call my bank ahead of time to get $100 brinks boxes of nickels or do banks normally have some on hand?
I know you can't tell me what my bank does or doesn't have but in your experiences, do you normally need to call ahead to get big orders?

| I don't call ahead. But i go in when they are not busy. if the bank you go to stays busy I would call. I have asked the teller if They would like for me to call in and she has told me There wasn't any need, But i dont think every bank feels that way |

| I have 40 bricks of nickels and I did have to order them ahead of time......I told them that I held a poker game at my home every night and that I was the banker. |

| I just to drive buys. Nickels are not in as much demand as most other coinage by businesses so the banks don't seem to mind parting with them as much.....if they have them. But maybe it's just that my regular banks know I'll be around sooner or later and just order more for me. |

| My regular bank keeps some on hand. They were out once and I had to go back after brinks had been by. |
