While depositing my Economic Stimulus check, I asked my Wachovia tellers for weird money... the usual: $2 bills, $1 coins, halves, foreigns, anything of interest. I got $30 in twos, $12 in dollar coins (nothing special), and the only two rolls of halves in the joint, customer rolled in brown paper wrappers.
Then my wife and I drive to our vacation spot of the day, Monticello, the Land of the Nickel. ("Hey numismatists, I found the original full-step reverse!") While in the parking lot, I decided to peek at the rolls, and I watched lots of silver edges tumble from the rolls. Ready....
10 Franklins (1952, 1952-D, 1953-D x2, 1956, 1957-D, 1958-D, 1960-D, 1962-D x2)
2 90% Kennedies (1964)
2 40% Kennedies (1968-D)
1 Tanzania, 10 shillings (1989)
and 27 clad halves (so the rolls had 2 extra coins packed in. Bonus!)
How's that for just two rolls?
(Also found my first New Mexico quarter today. Thanks, gift shop!)
