Now you see it now you don't...
Was on a small road trip today when I hit a bank and ask for halves. The tellers says she has a few then proceeds to ask around to her fellow tellers. One hands her $5 worth and I note a silver was there in the bunch as she counted them in front of me. She then says she needs to organize these as each teller handed her a few dollars worth...well out they come for me and guess what is missing. Yup - no more silver half. She had palmed it. The amount didn't even change. I noted the long line in the bank and realized it would be a bit of a fight for this single coin that I didn't have the time for. I was kinda pissed but knew it just wasn't worth the hassle at this time...maybe a dump will be coming here - oh well. On I went as there were a few more banks to hit and I only had a few minutes to spare. In my years of searching this was the only time I'd had a teller hide that she was grabbing the silver. Many have outright said they were taking all the silver and not bother to look but she was pretty slick.
