I guess you could say that you had a decent day... or slightly better than decent.

Wow!!! Whats the story behind them?

HH

Business deposit, wasn't even in hunting mode.
Teller said she found 2 solid rolls of Rosies and 2 solid 40% rolls, one of those old lady deposit stories.
Hoping she was holding them for me but she said she wants to hang on to them for the time being.

Part of our change order was a roll of quarters. Checked it when I got back to my store and it had 19 64's.

Went right back to the bank and asked if there were any other rolls from the woman, having assumed the teller checked everything but...I never should've assumed.

Bought 5 rolls, all 5 were solid.
219 total.

I was beside myself.

Hoping the teller will change her mind soon and want to sell the dimes and halves, but if not, I'm still way happy with this find.

Thanks man, it sure made my day.
To put it into perspective for myself, I've found 1 silver quarter in the last 10 years of retail.

Search between 2 and 5 boxes of halves per week and stumbled upon more this one day (piece count and value) than in the past 18 months of halves.

Thanks.
It could happen to anyone, hopefully your day is coming soon.
This came my way a week after putting one of my best dogs down, and I must say it got me smiling again.

Wow Humboldt, I am sorry to hear about your dog! I'm glad you cracked a smile with the shiny stuff... a doggy from doggy heaven must have really sent that your way.

I got 23 dollars worth of quarters because someone tried to get them to go through the coinstar and of course it wouldn't accept them, so I snagged them. It can happen. It's happened twice to me in less than 2 years. Just keep looking and checking your banks.

Congrats on the find. That beats mine right out of the silver mine.

Sincerely, GarouLady
