APUSH: Don't even have an account

Took off early today to go to the dentist. That was way fun. :-[

I had a bit of time on my hands before my appointment. Had a few boxes of dimes/nickels I needed to dump so I head to one of my banks. Got thru and decided I would go next door (literally a few feet away) and see if a bank--which I do not have an account--has any halves. The nice teller says yes, but they are on the coin machine. I said sure, if it is not too much trouble. Well, there was only $46.00 worth of halves, I buy them and only end up with 2-40%. I am not going to complain one bit about that dump.

I asked her about buying the dime bag. She said yes, but could I wait thru the weekend and come back Monday. She said it was about full ($1000.00) and she really likes to ship off dimes, nickels, and cents when they are full. Halves on the machine--I could come in anytime. I don't ask why, but just say thank you. I also picked up 7 clad Ike's--teller's offer. Already gave one as a tip today--young girl was a tad confused, but smiled.

So, on Monday I will go pick up my first bag of dimes. I need 15 more Rosies before I complete my first roll of silver dimes. Perhaps this bag will move me closer to that goal.

PS: Somedays we just get nice tellers who are just plain nice folks.

Nice bank. I'm curious what you are going to get off the dime bag. Heck I'd grab the quarter bag too.

Yes, they are out there. Most of my banks have been really nice to me too.
 

Re: APUSH: Don't even have an account

Might as well grab that quarter bag, too. You never know. Think I will give that a shot. Gonna hit the road a bit the next couple of weeks while I have some down time between semesters. :icon_sunny:

Don't be disappointed if the dime bag is full of debris and comes up a little short. I do one a week and get 10 silvers on average. You also get a variety of foreign coins washers and the occasional junk earing.
The quarters are a waste of time but you should buy the bag if your dimes get you more than 20 silvers.
Be sure to buy all the penny and nickel bags regardless..
Good luck! :icon_thumright:

I will give all the bags a try, if the bank will let me purchase them. This was my first offer on bags . . . this bank is about 20 miles from my home town (where my great dentist resides), so yes, I will pick up anything they will let me.

Thank everyone for their advice. In January, I think I will have 1 year of CRH under my belt.
