Nice score.

If you get the chance, post your 1880-P in the VAM section and let us attribute it for you. It has the die-break reverse (through the wreath bow) and some of those sell for a decent premium.

The quarter is easily the most valuable coin there.

I know Fredd! I was all jazzed about the Morgans until I got home and started looking at the quarter. I thought I didn't have any Barbers but I only have one and it's not that great. So I'm excited to add this to my collection.

The quarter IS awesome, but it is corroded, so it grades at a fine with details. The 1880 Morgan is way cool too. Overall she hit the jackpot on this one.

Hard times for some people who are uneducated enough to deposit treasures like these.

Why didn't the teller turn them in as a deposit? Was her till "light" when she turned it at the end of her shift? Whenever I am trying to be nice to the tellers at my Credit Union, they always reach for the phone (that is not ringing). I can only assume that they are fixin' to call security on me.

What were you using for bait to score such a catch?

She probably thought they were just weird dollars and set them aside. My wonderfully lucky wife just happened to walk in at the right moment. She has found a Merc in a tellers tray before as well. Not to mention scoring a 38D Walker roll searching. Sometimes I think if she stands up too fast the horseshoe is going to fall out. LOL
