A dream box is 20? I thought 100+ would be considered a dream box. Or has the standard fallen that much lately?

Wow, what audacity. I can't believe that she would search for silver right in front of you. Oh well, I guess you might as well take it as it is still money and can just redeposit it later.

wpd7- I think dream box is a loose term nowadays. I'm sure some of the old timers definition of what a dream box was/is would be different than what I would consider a dream box. In my area and with my ratios, anything with 20 keepers would be a dream to me. But maybe I have not been doing it long enough to really know the difference.
allranger- Yeah I was pretty upset, but I just smiled and took them anyways. I won't be going back to that bank.

No worries, kimikiri. You just found yourself a new dump bank!

I might have finally found a bank where the tellers have no idea what they have. I asked a teller for halves, and she only had six, but one was 90% and one was 40%!

What I am curious about is what would the teller have done after she checked the roll and found silver in it? Is she allowed to decline to sell it to you? I heard that banks do not allow tellers to exchange coins in front of the window.

The cherry-pickin tellers can surely do whatever they want in front of the customer, whether or not they have policies against. It's up to the customer to decide whether or not to raise a stink. I have accounts at six different banks, and all the tellers are silver educated. I do find several hundred silvers a year, it's getting tougher though, and if not for this being purely a hobby, I'm waisting time and money.

Received a text from my banker friend and said she had $10.50 in halves. I went over and picked them up and 5 were pre 1970! And, she had a Eisenhower to boot!
