First Bens and strange coin in halves

[theekman]

the only time ive ever seen a teller tray silver the teller over said it was hers when i asked if i could buy it, to make it worse it was a walking lib half. However yesterday i stopped by a bank ive never gone but have passed a few times. walk in and ask for half dollars and the older big dollar coins. the teller asked if anyone had any and said one teller had 2 dollars worth. said id take it so i slide my 2 dollars under the glass ans she slide in 4 halfs. CLINK CLINK CLINK CLONK. 3 bens and a clad! also got 35 in dollars coins but all eisenhowers and nothing special. but still happy with the bens.

2 boxes of halves produced a 1997 proof ( 10 box skunk streak on silver halves)

2 boxes of dimes produced 2 dimes and a foreign coin

I also found a strange coin while hunting halves anyone know anything about it. I donno if its from a worlds fair or somthing i have a hard time beleiving its from 1933 though. PICS BELOW

Awesome teller tray find! wow! The best ive gotten was 3 40%ers.

That chicago coin is pretty cool, any pics of the other side? Did you find it in a roll of halves? CWR/MWR?

It looks like the 8th one down in this link to me. They were given out as freebies at the Chicago World's Fair. Don't know a value though. Chicago Exposition 1933-1934

Chicago Exposition - Exposition Grounds Map 1933 token/medal about $10.00 in that shape. Plenty have survived in near perfect. If it was good and lost its luster they sell for $4.00 if it was near perfect with no damage they sold for $50.00. Ungraded of course.

Thanks, when it is not a foreign coin, I have trouble. I wanted a value for the OP.
