I know - crazy **** here, but, listen to this one. I stopped at a bank that has only once in a year even given me any coins (it was a solid roll of 40%) but usually I get nothing, nada, not a single coin and attitude, except from one teller, the one who gave me that solid roll a year ago. Today I go in and she is there again so I ask for halves. She says "oh yea, in the vault" and goes for them. When she returns she says I guess we sold them but I have four rolls here. I say I'll take them and expect the usual skunks.
Well - I get out to my car and spill out the first roll into my hand...solid walkers! I look at the other three rolls with the same wrappers and think this is gonna be nice!~ Next roll, all Bens, 3rd roll - half Walkers and half Kennedy 64s. And here comes the crazy **** - last roll all 40%! I have to laugh, being disappointed because it was only a roll of 40%! No major key dates on the walkers or bens but still some nice ones with an 18s, 20s, 37d, 36d and a few others interesting coins. I gotta charge up my camera so I can and get a few pictures up. The best part of this story is that I wasn't even gonna hit any banks but my source bank was late on getting my boxes so I hit a few on the way to work. You just never know, some of my best finds have been in banks that have had no results for months upon months but persistence does pay off...also I'm still wondering about what got sold off from the vault...
