Surprise at the bank

Went to do a business deposit and one of the tellers said she made some great finds.
One of those "little old lady" stories.

The teller found 2 solid rolls of 40% and 2 solid rolls of Rosies.

Hoping she'd say she hung on to them for me but she's going to keep them, for the time being at least.
She knows where I work and said if she decides to sell them she'll come into my store.

I went from elated to disappointed.

Grabbed change for the store including a roll of quarters.

Back at the store I decided to check it.
21 1965 and 19 1964.
My eyes almost popped out of my head when I saw the second half of the roll.

Went right back to the bank, waited for the same teller, asked if she had any more rolls the woman dropped off.
Bought $50.

First roll was solid.
All 5 were solid.

219 quarters between 1935 and 1964.
Best hunting day I've ever had.

Wow a $900 payday! I bet you're glad you went back.

Indeed. Kicked myself for not asking the first time I was there but figured the teller checked everything.
She said there were more rolls but she gave some out in change.
Oh well, I'm not complaining!

Good thing the bank is less than 5 minutes away from my store and I have a great job that I can leave from for errands if I need to.

Pics?
Sweet cull by the way.

Thanks.
Waiting for a new card reader, should be here any day.

Can do the tablet shots but they never do the coins justice.

Great score! Now you've replaced Wicka as the king of quarters. What are the dates?

Will try get some pictures up tomorrow. Off to work now and will be busy tonight.

Over half of them are 1964, with many looking uncirculated or darn close.

2 1935, haven't had a chance to if they're D's or not.
1940, 1941, 1942, 1943, 1944, 1946...
