Roll Hunting, Other Than Halves

Today was the first day I got back into roll hunting, just a little taste. 3 rolls of halves(nothing good) and a roll of dimes. While chatting w/ the teller she told me shes been saving the old ones of quarters and dimes, she sees them more then old halves. Turns out she just saves them in the drawer. I got 10 silver rosies and 4 washingtons at fv.

I like my bank...always a prize!

Next weekend, I may pay her a visit again

Thats what I thought I dont think I'll be as lucky again this weekened though, it was sweet tho, filled 5 holes in my rosie book. the other 5 were 64p&d's.

I'm going to try out some nickels this weekend...maybe a box worth.

what is a 'rosie?' never heard that term before.

And my best luck has been in nickels and halves. It is tough to fidn halves even at the bank anmore, but abt 15 years ago I remember gonig into my bank and asknig for $150 worth. The teller said, 'you're in luck. I took in $600 worth this morning.' She had msot of them on the side of her conuter as the drawer was full, and when she started counting them out I noticed that the rolls all had writing on them. Some said 40 and some said 90. She must not have known what that meant, but I did! I immediately asked her for as much as I could afford, which was $390 total. about 2/3 were 40% and the rest were mainly 64 kennedys and franklins with a handful of walkers in there.

boy, I miss the good old days...........

mdh157, at least you cashed in on the good old days, all I can do is dream.

I found this beauty in a roll!

Wow, nice war.

Back in the mid 90's, I worked 3 years for K-mart. They actually paid us in cash for the first year and a half that I was there. I got to know the ladies in the "cash cage" and they always saved all the "weird" stuff for me. Mostly it was like $2 bills, halves, dollar pieces. I wonder how much they get now with everyone using ATM cards.
