Nice little haul

[Tomfromnj]

So I went to dump 20 in halves I had laying around and at the counter I see silver halves in the tray I said can I have them she says yeah but not the silver one I say never mind how about those five dimes she says they are mine too. Silver. I think it should be illegal to have silver sitting in the tray show it to me then say I can't have it. So I'm mad and want to find silver now. I buy a box of nickels. I never do nickels. I pull a 36 and a 37 Indian. Lots of 39,40's none war and 50's in this box. Threw them all back not interested. So I go to another dump location dump go to the counter what do I see 6 silver halves staring me in the face. Here we go again. Can I have those halves. Why sure. What really ok. 69,68x2,67x2,64. Picked up another nickel box got a 28 Indian and 3x2005s. So made me feel better about missing out on 1 half and 5 dimes.

They are indeed proof strikes. Your first picture wasn't clear enough. Your second does indeed show a proof strike. They are impaired so I'm not sure what value they hold, but they only cost you face to keep.

Lol some people don't get sarcasm, nothing you can do

If you have ever read anything I have written here you will realize I am sarcasm personified. If it was indeed sarcasm then my apologies. However, which part of the post was intended to be a joke?

This part? "Go to the bank that refused to sell you coin and talk to the manager."
Or this part? "Make up some phones baloney story and say you are a teacher trying to teach kids about American coins or something. Tell them you will "return" them after a lesson ;-)"

Or all of it? It isn't always easy to pick up sarcasm on an internet chatboard - especially when/if part of the same paragraph is written sincerely.

Not sure you'd have to ask the writer. He says it's a joke I'm taking it as face value. Don't have the time in my day to look deeper into internet form posts

Some people don't get rhetoric I guess.

It's not a forum violation to suggest someone to lie to a teller... Plus he is not stealing the silver I'm sure they would make him pay fv for them

Lets just congratulate the OP. this forum isn't for petty arguments.

At least it's not me arguing this time lol. On a better note did another box of nickels and I got a 36-37 buff and a 45 war

Well if its not a forum violation then I guess it makes it ok?!?

Gorgeous buffaloes! Love those coins!

Yes, especially since it was said tongue-in-cheek. It absolutely came across how Wicka intended it to come across, except for in your case. Drop it.

Yes sir I did. I have 4 more boxes to do tomorrow

When I went to Aruba last year I picked some coins up for my foreign coin collection. Aren't they great? They're currency is even more exotic.
HH.
Hope your next boxes are solid v nickels.

Mastermind I already apologized if I misread his original post. The follow up "its not a violation of forum rules to tell a member to lie to a teller" is a seperate matter, and a misguided at best response. Lying is never ok unless your pregnant wife asks "do I look fat." Im not going to drop something because you tell me to - especially when you respond to something that was basically over anyways.

Cool to find those buffalos, especially the dated coins. Of all the nickels I've searched, which isn't much, never a buff for me. Matter of fact, I have set free the dateless buffs I had. Wonder how the nice ones end up in circ?

Hope some full daters come your way soon!
