Last week when I went to the bank I was greeted by a teller who told me that they have some old coins that an older man brought in. They told me they were going to wait a week to see if it was an accident and he wanted them back, if he never came (which they were pretty sure was the case) I could have them. According to them he brought in a roll of dimes, 20 of them were silver. Also some nickels, which she saved the old ones for me including the war nickels and buffalo nickels. She had them for a total of three weeks, two weeks already before I came in the first time, the man never came and today she gave them to me. Anyways, I'm very happy with the coins. Sounds like an old coin jar clean out to me.

So far my biggest find since my 32 Walking Liberty Half Dollars at the Supermarket last year.

Nice Haul there!
 

Nice to know people in the right places, WTG
 

That is an amazing bank find. Better get the cinnamon rolls ready for them.....
 

I do believe I would be treating them to lunch.
 

If you're single, you need to marry that teller! Awesome score dude!
 

Nice finds. Wish I had a bank that would do that.
 

NICE CACHE OF COINS ....
