After being away from the coin "deal" for a few months (out traveling the world thanks to US mint and Citicard churn), I ordered 50 boxes of 2010 NAs. My order was changed to 30 boxes by the mint a few days later.
I made another order of 20 boxes, to meet the 50 box limit, and that order was cancelled today. 30 box order still shows 'in process'.
Hmmmmm?

When the card gets below $25 I go in a gas station give them the card and say " I want $23.56 ( or whatever) on pump #3."

Hi,
I usually deposit the coins at bank X. Today I deposited at BOA and the teller informed me that the coins will have to be sent for counting (they were still unwrapped in 25 pcs rolls) and it will take 2~3 business days to deposit
.
Has anyone else gone thru this?

I'd go back to bank X from now on, quite a few people have gotten short counts. Once the machine gets worn, you can get a lot of miscounting. But if they maintain it right, it should be fine. I have used a couple counters that were accessible to depositors, put about $8000 through them, and never gotten a short count.

poking fun
people really are getting too lazy to read, they go to the last page, read a few posts and ask questions that have been answered 500 times. If it is answers you seek young jedi, read deeper.
To the person talking about a $2 Susan B. Anthony coin, I have some $3 bills for ya...sell ya 7 for $20
and wow, before you mentioned it we never would of thought to use those deposited coins to pay our CC bills, thanks for the idea.
sorry about the sarcasm but these posts are making my brain numb.
wow, my brain really is numb, I'm commenting on posts from page 5, when i thought i was reading page 565
proof that reading stupidity makes you dumb.

I read that post as a wake-up call. I still faithfully read replies to this thread, and I'm dismayed to see that we're about 8400 posts in. I've wasted just a huge amount of time here. And I haven't learned anything in this thread in months. I guess I'm just hopeful that the limits will go away.

Like what? How to spend your money. Nothing good gets posted anymore because members freak out if you say anything that might be useful. I'll just keep collecting coins (at a lower rate) while others keep complaining about canceled orders.

So showing how to get your miles plus a percent or two cash back was not helpful?
