Hi all,
Got $200 out of my Credit Union, and she was counting out the last $40 when it dawned on me to ask if she "had any rolls of coins that customers brought in."
She had two rolls of nickels and a roll of dimes. One stinkin' roll! The nickels were a wash, but sure enough, there was a 1945 Mercury in the dimes.
How could someone not have known?!?!?!?! (Not a complaint~)

Only when they CAN'T have it, ......THEN they'll want it.
I love Cents. If you get an UNC box, you win. If you get a regular circ. box, you win. If you get a zinc box, you don't lose....so you still win. |

What's wrong with you? Don't you like nice new stuff? Spend all those old outdated coins quick before the store no longer accepts them, or haul them down to the bank!
(Nice find!) |

Probably the same way IH's, Buffaloes, Franklins and Walking Liberties end up in other coin rolls. Obviously people either don't care or don't pay attention.
Sweet find either way.
