Hello Group.

Is it possible to get loose pennies in a bag as opposed to rolled?

Thanks

Silver..poor mans gold
Copper..peasant silver

yes, in some banks with automatic coin counting machines, if they let you buy them.

Yes! as stated in the previous post if the bank has a coin counter and takes customer loose coin.... then you have to be charming enough to talk them into giving it to you In place of giving it to brinks (or just ask enough banks and the odds are that you will get a couple at least that are willing to sell to you.

If they tell you no at first dont write them off to fast some banks just have to warm up to the idea first
I have a couple banks that I stopped in 6-7 times B4 they agreed to sell to me.

It does free up the time it takes to open the roills.... bags are the only sorting I do. I have 7 regular banks that sell me coin every week in customer return $50 bags. (I hope I never have to go back to roll opening, I've been spoiled)

the big thing is that when they sell it to me they dont want to see them again.




Happy Prospecting!

If I could purchase mine that way I would have 4 Ryedales chained together too.

If your percentages are low.. just sort more. If your percentages are high.. just sort more.

I noticed the big tire behind the pennies. You appear to almost be a commercial operation. One question, are the zincs dumped the same way that the mixed bags arrive? You know, are you able to just swap out your own pallet of zincs for a mixed pallet? Thanks for the great pictures you have been posting. We love pictures....

Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen."
