Hey Buff, this is a bittersweet quote. Bitter for those halves being sold to "another" customer, which are really sitting in some banker's pocket.

My favourite is: "We don't have any silver dollars or big 50 cent pieces, but you might check the post office and buy some there"
Fair enough, I'm not that stupid to buy steel mint rolls of halves for 2.5 times the face value each.

Here's one I got once...

"Oh, you mean the big dollar coins with the ladies on them. Yeah, we just shipped a bag with a whole bunch of those back to the fed last week."

That was a FFFFFFFUUUUUU moment.

True quote - Can I get $10 in pennies..... "why do you want them and what are you going to do with them" at first I thought of saying the first thing that came to my mind but decided not to.

Overheard between tellers at one of my dump sessions:

"half-dollar-man 'Dan' is going to be thrilled" - presumably, this bank has someone named 'Dan' who always comes looking for halves.
