Stopped at my favorite bank today and the teller that I talked to said "no halves today, but... Oh wait"

I hear him grab some coins... I hear the silver clink clink clink, but it sounds odd... Not like halves. More like LARGE DOLLARS!!! My mind was RACING!. All I could think was "my first Morgans or peace dollars maybe"?

He comes over and I see the FAT rims and he is looking them over. He puts them at an angle so I can see the backs and I see that unmistakable back. I had to hold back from jumping over the counter and kissing him.

He looks at them some more and says... "Hmmm.. These say silver and dollar. Yup they are dollars. Silver dollars. I figured you would like them so I saved them for you".

I hand him my $3 and he hands me these beauties... SCORE!

Now that is a sweet find!

I asked for large dollars today and had a stack of Susan B's handed to me :-\

That is the EXACT reason I use the term "large dollars" and never mention the word silver.

I scored one of these myself about 3 years ago.

That's quite a return on your initial investment!
Wow...great score...congrats!!
It's just unbelievable that there are so many people out there (especially who work at banks) who simply have NO idea what they have. Oh well, their loss is our gain :wink:
