My bank has been putting random stuff aside for me recently so I thought I'd share it all with you. The first thing was a 50 for 50$ snowy owl coin

The next day I went in and they had some bills for me. Nothing special but not bad condition the 2$ bills are just basic serial numbers

I became friends with one of the bankers when I went in inquiring about the newest claw foot fake toonies, the tellers all realized I have been looking for coins so when they get something that is different they save it for me now, or if they get a roll with an interesting coin on the end they save it for me. I buy rolls while on break at work, then go through them take out anything silver or that catches my eye and then bring the roll back after replacing the ones I take with normal coins. Yesterday was my first silver find since roll hunting. Costs me nothing and maybe find some silver. They had a 100$ coin with a bison or something on it from the mint as well but I could only afford the 50$ one atm. The 100$ one I think they sent back to the mint. Random person came in and sold the coins to the bank for face so they sell it to me for face value. The 100$ coin had a box case and looked nice but I don't think they are worth more then there face anyways like the snowy owl coin.

I'm not sure if any of these are worth more then face value, but didn't have any of them before so it's good to start a collection. I'm bringing back 10 rolls of quarters today to exchange for new ones, I see alot of 2020 coins haven't seen anything 2021 yet, the odd roll I get has pre 1990 coins mayb today I'll find a 1991 quarter, need one for my birthday year collection. Annoying that there was only like 200k minted
