I just wanted to start this to see what all everyone finds. The best things I've gotten are a 1939 Nickel from the teller's tray, a 1964 Half Dollar that the teller actually said, "Here's a silver half for you", and full roll of copper cents. Oh, and three rolls of UNC 2010 Philadelphia Cents
I know that's not the best compared some people's finds, but that's what I've gotten from them.
And I also got twelve Eisenhower dollars.

Not a coin, but none the less great find. Especially like the 4 digit serial number and that it is from Dallas district.

Nice find! Aren't they supposed to send those back to the Fed?

1979-S Type 2 Proof SBA, straight from a teller tray. I saw a proof SBA in the tray and asked for all the dollars. Once I got home, I realized it was the clear S variety

Best box ever was from a check cashing joint. Pulled 16 war nics from it, also my 2nd 50-d. These places are over looked.

The best was a roll of proof silver halves along with a 70d.
It is legal to own a 500 dollar bill. I believe anything above 10000 is ILLEGAL. Great find :)

I have gotten rolls of halves with lots of 40%, 30+ 64 Kens, 8 Franklin's, 7 Walkers, 27 Ike's, and 6 1934A $100 bills of which I sold 5 of them for a tidy profit and gave the best one to the wife for her currency collection.
