Nobody seems to understand the real value IS newly minted rolls. I've been selling coins for a bit and good money is to be made 1. Rolls can be sold individually for 2-3X face leaving profit margins around $3-6 per roll giving you $150 in profit minimum. 2. A highly recommend option is to OPEN the rolls and look for mint errors, you can find hundreds of repeating errors, progression errors,or multi stages. Trust me when I say you could literally be the person to discover a coin that writes coin history* *Rare coins are rare but I do I've a recent example 2021 Cent K7-K3 sold as high as $900 and seller had found 30-40. Do the math ;)

A while ago I went to my bank and bought them about out of half dollar rolls. Unfortunately I did not have a good luck. I found no silver. I did find a bunch of bicentennial ones which do not have any extra value, but it is still nice to have a few in my collection.

I just got a box of Anna May Wong, haven't bothered to open them. I'm a lil perplexed on what to do. I suppose I can sell the box or individual rolls, or hunt em all for the few known errors. Hard to tie up $500. like that, but at least I'm not getting charged for picking em up or bringing em back... yet.

hey bro, hopefully you see this I found that if you go in smaller quantities, they might have them at the bank instead of ordering them

Most of the time now, the armored trucking company that supplies coins and paper monies, usually order new. New is desired more for most customers.

I am a coin collector. I collect circulating US coins. I don't have any half dollars in my collection for this very reason. They don't circulate. I do have a few, but only a handful. I was showing my collection to some young people, and they were unaware that the US made a half dollar.

Thanks for watching everyone! This comment will answer the majority of questions / comments being left here... hope it help! 1) I am looking for circulated half dollars, and no I don't need to go to smaller banks and/or order smaller amounts. For years I was getting 10 boxes a week for live streams and they were always all circulated. I also use a number of different banks for picking them up as well as dumping them so I try and minimize getting the same coins all the time. 2) Yes... there are still Silver half dollars out there. We aren't looking for ones that have been there for years, those are long gone. Most Silver half dollars ended up in circulation recently when someone that doesn't know any better takes a bunch of change they had laying around, or were left when a loved one passed to a bank and deposits them. Of course we'd love to let them know not to do that, but it happens. 3) This isn't an exact exchange dollar for dollar... because of the large amount of half dollars I used to get, the banks did start imposing fees. Local banks don't get to order coins for free. Generally the coins they order are written off as a business expense and is just considered part of doing business. But when accounting sees a massive increase in coin ordering, they start asking questions, and the fees happen. 4) While I USED to search for half dollars to make money, I actually don't do that anymore. Whenever I do a CRH live stream, they are 100% free fun streams and the finds are given away to people in the chat during the live stream.

Catching on? I'm 100% honest with my bank about why I buy the coins... there's nothing to catch onto. They even know about my KZread channel. Besides that, it actually has nothing to do with the banks. The U.S. Mint started producing half dollars for circulation again during the "coin shortage". As a result we're seeing brand new half dollars enter the system, which hasn't happened since 2001. There's some knowledge for ya. :)

Quarters are the same. In the last $1000 I searched I found 1 silver quarter.

The name of the game is to keep ongoing and not give up. you're not gonna find anything with a defeatous attitude. the very next box you get could be loaded with silver.

If I ever bought $1000 in halves, this is what would happen to me.

I found more silver in my loose change!

Whenever I’m in this situation I just think the only thing lost is time, since you can exchange them straight back.

That and I pay $2 per box to pick them up, and 1% to return them.... so I also lost $14.

If you have a local casino, they'll change it all out dollar for dollar for you. I take my collected change to the casino (my job) instead of a CoinStar machine cuz the casino gives 100%
