No banks ever seem to call me, I don't know why... I told them to if they got anything older and they never did. The lady at the admin office at the mall said that when the charity comes to get the coins from the fountain she would call me and they never did. Nothing but frustration!  Edited by Normic67

The photo lacks a LOT of details.. that $5 is in pretty poor condition... so Slur.. I'm still up for the trade... sorry just with all the other things going on... reno's and a whole slew of other things.. I just haven't had any time to break out the coins...
So if you sell the $5's that's okay... otherwise I think I may be able to break out the coins again over the holiday break ... and we'll work something out...
Arianzo: hahah just don't tell my wife! I'm kidding... but I have developed a pretty good relationship with some of the commercial tellers in my city.. this was a pretty good haul...
Normic: I think it all depends on which day you show up and what they have.... just keep trying

My boyfriend gets totally jealous about my relationship with my main bank teller. He comes into the bank with me and thinks she's being too flirty lol.
Maybe I'm not flirting enough with them.

I go into my bank daily for other business, and I love when they have old stuff for me. Never anything special, but its all for face value!!. I did get 10 or 20 mint 1954 5's once.(modified)

As the teller was counting this all out she says.. "so is this worth anything"
My immediate response was .. "Ohh YEAH! there's about $425,000 here!! This is GREAT!" ... the look on their faces is priceless....
I then go on to say.. "no it's pretty much all worth just face value but I can't stand to think that this stuff will get sent off to be destroyed

Nice Customer service from your bank. As a shareholder in the Royal, Scotia and TD, I;m always interested in positive, or negative experiences from your bankers.

What an awesome score and great relationship with your bank! At my bank, I'd never get such customer service....I'm lucky if the teller even speaks English.

Nice teller you have Ag
I used to have a bank that was a smaller bank with only 3 branches and were the kind that knew you by name etc. One day she called me and asked if I wanted some rolls. I went and got several rolls of V nickles and Buffalos plus silver coins etc. that were cashed by a older customer.
When the big banks take over the small banks the service isn't as friendly. They end up as Bank of America etc. I don't that that service now.

Buy a lotto ticket, buy someone (at the branch) a
coffee and pastry, you have some good karma going.
I started buttering up my local branch over the past
week. Nice score!

I'm still in for the trade. Ag, make sure you read my last PM, some important dates in Winter break.
Haven't found a buyer yet... Maybe international university students isn't the right target, or so my friend who is in Business says. I've heard numismatics being called a "niche market".
I actually put the really worn multicoloured and bird ones back into circulation, for funny reactions. I wonder to where they'll end up? I hope I sparked someone's interest!

Slur: I'm totally in for the trade.. and I did read your last e-mail.. thank you for the heads up on those important dates... Over the holidays I will bring out my coins and spend some time sorting out those items on your want list.
Coins change lives... always up for trades and such... send me a message...
Silverdon... I sometimes do give the tellers gifts... one lady at this branch in the past was just about to go on maternity leave and I got her a few little baby gifts. I have in the past given some doughnuts and coffee for all the branch staff when the call me about silver quarters/dollars etc etc.... Needless to say I'm very happy with the service and I think they're very happy to have me as a customer...
