Very intersting, Conder. I didn't know that about the Peace dollar.

A long time ago someone in one of the Where's George forums reported finding a Morgan in a dollar roll.

I tend to think though, that with a 35 year layoff of dollar production that this would be highly improbable.

Actually, if you can find Ikes, I'd think it should be pretty easy to find Morgan/Peace dollars at face value too. Consider how many silver dollars are still sitting in Grandpa's dresser drawer, just waiting to be cashed in by someone who doesn't know any better. Most of the younger generation--including most bank employees--have no clue what a "silver" coin is anymore.

Very true! If a few circulated bags of Ikes were able to be had, there just may be some silver in them. People on this forum that search half dollar boxes quite often find 90% jfk's, Bennies and occasionally Walkers! And sometime in the past week or so a member of this forum almost got a Peace dollar from a bank! Seems that somebody cashed in 4 silver dollars and a male teller gave 3 to other tellers and was going to keep the last one for himself. Another teller almost gave it away while he was away from his window...lol.

To add to this, I never thought I'd ever encounter any red seals in my searches of $2 bill straps from the banks....but I've picked up about six of them.

I guess I'll have to hit that Wells Fargo again to get the rest of the Ikes. You never know!
