I would look out for any silver coinage, old cents, old nickels, and all interesting paper money, i.e. $2 bills, silver certificates. Has anybody ever seen a gold certificate circulating?

I would look out for silver coins. I would also keep an eye out for the 40% silver Kennedy halves. You can't go wrong with silver even if its a common date. |

Are you allowed to put coins/currency aside and buy them from your drawer? I'd be a little surprised if you are.

Don't know if you ever heard of the lady bank robber not to long ago that robbed a bank, wore no mask, was topless and no one could identify her except... Anyway as for advise of what to look for, it's basically already been said. Anything that does not look right. A freind of mine has a laundromat and still gets .20 peices, lots of old Silver coins. Once thing he gets a kick out of now with all the Mexicans in the area is how many think they are pulling a fast one by dumping pure Silver Mexican coins in one of his machines for a Quarter wash or dry. If in a bank note there are many, many people out there with jars, bags, boxes, cans of old coins and end up taking them to a bank.

Yeah I can put things aside in my drawer. I just have to have another teller sell it to me.

I know plenty of tellers do it here in my home town, heck they will even save them for customers if you ask and if they like you |

Look for Rotated Reverse Errors by simply flipping coins over, very easy to find errors this way. Keep or sell on ebay. Have fun. |

I have more 2 dollar bills than I can count, it got so bad I had to tell her to stop saving them for me when it got up to 300.00 each time I went to the bank (ever seen 300.00 worth of 2 dollar bills? it aint a pretty sight)

I would definitely look for silver as it has been running about 3 1/2 times face value and YOUR bank won't pay that kind of interest! Especially when you are getting the silver at face value!

3-1/2X face? You're talking about 40% silver halves, right? At yesterday's close, 90% silver US coins now melt for more than 10x face! If you're not getting 6x, you're getting taken advantage of, and I wouldn't settle for less than 8x. But good luck looking for silver--the only way you'll find it is if some thieving kid tries to cash in grampa's coin jar. |
