The first 2 pics are from Tuesday did better with nickles the last 3 pics are from Wednesday did realy good with wheats. Why does someone damage a coin I don't get it.
You make a very valid points NorthShore. I don't know if the teller was trying to pull my leg or not. She has no reason to lie to me nothing I could do about the situation. I have heard in some banks tellers were not allowed to swap out coins but who would enforce that. I had to go back to the bank and ask her if she had any of those rolls left and she said no I bought them all. Who really knows for sure. Yes that would be over $ 20,000 in silver. I think actually I know that I would tell the customer she has a small fortune here and should take it to a dealer. no crime here but yes an ethical issue for sure.
I just noticed this thread and had to talk about something that happened a couple of days ago. I go to my local bank and ask for halves and some penny and nickle rolls. I get a few nothing special. The teller says someone brought in a large amount of coins the other day. Teller notices one of the dime rolls looks a little shorter. than the rest. I cringed we know whats coming here. She opens roll all silver. The person brought in $ 1200 in coins. The teller said they were all silver and she bought them all. Seems a bit far fetched but she had no reason to lie to me. Wow if this did in fact happen what a score. Moral of the story is still plenty out there to be hunted down.
After checking the coinstar and finding nothing I go to the self checkout to pay for my groceries. Look down and George is lying on the floor by my feet. Very unexpected.
This was quite a bunch of penny rolls.40 rolls every single roll has wheats. I showed the long picture of the first 20 rolls and how many came out of each roll then did a close up. I did the same for the second 20 rolls and then showed some of the older coins. I am quite certain I will never be able to duplicate this find. Needless to say this was a lot of fun.
