A Bad Visit To The Bank.

I imagine tellers probably do get quite bored of coin roll hunters, to be fair. Banks aren't coin shops. Their duty is to supply you with a banking service, and part of this includes reasonable requests for physical currency. If you ask for 20 rolls of cents (not pennies - they are CENTS and I wish people would call the American coin as such), and they supply you with 20 rolls of cents then they have done their job regardless of whether they're all freshly minted 2024s, all 1909 S-VDBs, or a random smattering of dates. I've seen some people on here (I'm not directing this at you) who seem to think that it's a bank's duty to supply them with interesting coins. This is what makes good relationships valuable - if you get someone willing to assist you, then don't abuse the privilege (and also use separate banks for picking up/depositing, as you seem to now realise).

Yes, I've have once bank branch which I use exclusively for dumping.

Dump bank - bound to make it into the Oxford dictionary at some point.

I would not count on this. Unfortunately for you, they can afford to lose a few consumer accounts.

A little story about banks. My son-in-law last year found paperwork on a CD his Dad had bought him like 15 years ago.

The selling bank had been bought and sold 3 or 4 times since, so like 4 bank names later he calls and they tell him they can't find it. After 2 months of calling every 2 weeks max, they tell him, now get this.... "We'll keep looking and if we find it we'll send you a check."

My daughter told me this and I called my teammate who is a lawyer with all the information. HE called the bank... they called back 30 minutes later, whaddya know, they found it. It was a 5K CD, he got a check for 16K in the mail 4 days later.

They were straight-up lying to my son-in-law, that's how much they care about you.

Back to bartering--chickens for potatoes, and whatnot.

I took my buy bank kiffles and cookies at Christmas. And I only get $20 a week in nickels! =)
