Yes it was kind of great in a small potatoes way but was upset at the incorrect count. I wanted to get in and out and not make a mistake but this worked out. Need to get empty rolls. I was planning on quitting searching but the teller said to not give up. |

Went thru my first two boxes, ever and found, two, 67s. No machines here that are free and no papers. I planned with the bank to take them in loose. Mgr goes in back with a teller to check my 2x500 count. Supposedly I shorted myself two coins. Chatting with nice teller. They were slow and wrapping up for 6;00. I ask about unusual stuff. Starts looking thru her small till and while watching her, young eyes ,scanning dates; I no sooner say to look at edge for a solid grey line and she says " here's one" during the dime compartment. Righttttt I say and think. Holy Rosey I look and its a 48. She takes my quarter and hands it over with a nickle. Said she was sick and I was happy with the dime loss, either way. |

I only see Jbuck and Dad from old days. So I stopped with coins in the horrible yr. of 2009. And things stayed bad. Just today, I recommended a FB friend come here to learn stuff. She wanted a price on a 1893 Colombian Ex. that she had, and some others. Hope all is well as can be |

After my training here, I always check the coin machines and for the 2nd time in my new bank, in a couple weeks, I found two Wheaties in the return with some other beat up Cents. 50s before but a 40 and 20 yesterday. I had to look them up and high mintages. oh well. |

Years back, with my roll finds, I got out the silver polish and poured a bunch on a big hunk of paper towel. The stuff is slippery and I would get the coins good and wet and lay them down. Then grab and rub them, one at a time, with the wet towels. I would try to get them all done as quick as I could and then wash them by hand with lots of dish detergent. I would then blot them dry and lay them down on towels to really dry. I did stop this blasphemy after being effected by the CC angel in my head. The coins still all look great as they are kept in tubes.

I found a'45 a couple weeks ago. I have been driving past a restaurant for years and never went in. The slices were good as was my first ever silver coin   first silver in normal change that is. I immediately changed a quarter and told the un-CC young girl. A couple of elderly woman wanted to see it. It was kinda fun |

He says he will be back for his change, later, and then he is discussed as being involved in a past robbery by the innkeeper who summons the law. Then he is questioned and seemed uninterested and innocent. |

So just yesterday, I am barely watching this Western show from the 50's. An Indian reaches in and pays off a innkeeper with what seemed to be a a $50 Pan-Pac. They show it clearly, but I am not 100% sure what it was, It did have the 6 or so sides. Thats my story and IASTI.
