Asked For Dollar Coins, Never Expected These!!

Congrats Dude!

I would have suspected a UNC silver coin to make it that far through the banking system, but to get 2 silver proofs coins at face value, not melt, is incredible!

You should have bought a bunch of lottery tickets that day too.

This gives us all hope we can get a great score from our local bank too.

Thanks for sharing your great news, it turned my frown upside-down.

Awesome score.

I have only found a 6 or 7 commemorative non silver halves and a 1982 Washington half roll hunting but never anything like that from a tellers tray.

I would keep them as everytime you look at them you will remember the story of how you got them.

Sir Dizzy - $16 would not be a low ball number. The US silver dollar even though it made of 90% silver, the silver it contains is .77 of a Troy Ounce. So 77% of $21.80 is $16.79. The dealer is strictly using spot value instead of the numismatic value to buy the coin. He's trying to get it at a price where there is a little meat on the bone to make a few bucks. One more item of consideration, the coins do not appear to have OGP or COA's. Which can effect the the coins price.
