Went out for dumping today and after finishing dumping I decided to check a couple of banks where I know for sure tellers are not silver hoarders or coin collectors. First bank I went into, "Do you have any halves?", she replys: "Yes, I have $49, but they are loose, in a bag. What dates are you looking for?" "Oh, I will buy the whole bag and if you have a spare box of nickels, I want to buy a box".
On the way to my car, I spotted a Walker inside the plastic baggie. My heart rate got faster. Once inside my car, I dumped the halves out on the passenger seat, I found 3 silver modern proofes (2001s, 2002s, 2003s), 1 walker, 6 40%, 1 clad proof. The walker is in AU condition and is the best condition of walker I found in the wild. I immediately went back and ask her: "What other coins did that same customer bring to you with those halves?" "He also brought some bald dollars but other customer bought them". This makes me wondering, since there are collectable coins in the halves, there may be some collectable coins in the Ikes too. So it was not the perfect timing, but I did catch something. As a collector, I had a very nice time! Happy Hunting Everyone!
