Bank one is my go to buy bank here in the city. Go in and am told they are closing in two weeks. I am not thinking I'm screwed. This bank produces a lot of silver for me. I know the tellers well and they all think I buy the coins for my niece and nephew. They say we are going to the other branch down the street and I can use them once they are working. Here is where the story gets good. I hear that noise that all CRH's know to well. The sound of rolls being open and dumped. I ask what's going on and they say we are trying to empty the vault out, so we are going to put all the coins In the machine to get rid of them. I walk over and look the pile over and I see sime shinny silver edges on the quarters. Stop I tell the young lady. I'll take them all along with whatever else you have. So they tell me the score and I take half and I will go back in the morning after I dump all this. I end up with 2 boxes of dimes, 3 boxes of pennies and 3 boxes of quarters. Haven't started on them yet. Also they will still get my halves next week.
Bank two. While doing some errands north of my house today I decide to run by the credit union on the Navy base. This is a great dump bank due to the coin counter they have. It's new and fast! Ask the teller if they can spare to sell some coins. I get a big smile and am told to go see teller 1 at the end. Lady says that some guy came in this morning and dropped off $500 in wrapped rolls. He has been saving them for years for a vacation. I take them all. Now I'm thinking this is some guys dump, until I see he has made stickers with his name and account number on them. I don't think any one of us would do all that. So I am all happy and then she tells me the worst news. She says you should have came in Monday, someone cashed in all their funny money. I ask what she is taking about and she goes you know the big silver coins and a bunch of two dollar bills. Unfortunately someone already bought it all. I think I may still have a good score here.
I will post the results when I am through. With bank one I can only remember getting skunked on a dime box from there twice, and I've gone through many boxes from them. Enough of this I need to get started, just wanted to share good bank news after reading many posts about bad bank experiences.
