Dollar for dollar

So my bank teller TJ told me about an 1889 dollar coin someone had spent at his till awhile back as I was coin mining...
He had kept it because of its age and rarity...he always asks about what coins I find and so I was very interested in his find....I told him if he ever wanted to sell it I'd give him a dollar for it...I remember the other tellers burst out laughing when I said that...anyway today I went in to exchange quarters for more quarters and he brought his coin out and said "I'll give this to you for a dollar"....and explained it will just sit in the jar at his desk...I told him I usually like to collect only things I find and said if he ever wants it back to let me know...but I relented and gave him 4 quarters....I must say that the tellers and security at this bank in Seattle are exceptionally nice...

I might be inclined to give that generous teller a gift card to a local restaurant ! Very nice Morgan dollar !

Hunt, it was nice of him...he said if I ever score big on a coin to share some of the wealth with him...I would love to reciprocate...

Good idea Argentium...I'll need to pick his coworker's brains and find out where he likes to eat...

I always find a gift of a half dozen muffins or pastries is a nice way to thank property owners for their permission to hunt... this will have a similar effect.

It was very generous gift by the bank teller,
