Last week I had to dump at my southern banks. Here is what happened this time.

The teller had to change the bag and asked me "You were here just two weeks ago with half dollars, right"? I answered in the affirmative and was thinking "here we go". She goes on to say,"You know we have to hand count these half dollars after we remove the bag". Now I know this is a steaming pile of B.S. so I tell her."That's great, keeping busy makes the work day fly by."
I'm waiting for that question and here it comes. "Where do you get all those half dollars from"?
I reply," My grandmother recently passed away and she left me 50-60 5 gallon water jugs filled with half dollars. She had been saving them since the depression. My wife told me to search through them before cashing them in because most of them are very very old and could be worth something. I told my wife that I don't have time to look for old coins and could care less about them".
The teller said," Really because when we looked through them last time it looked like someone had already picked through them!"
I grabbed a half from the tray which happened to be a 1974, showed it to her and said Look! Here is a real old one,35 years old !

Hahahaha, awsome Rich. Grandma loved to hoard clad halves, its not your fault!
 

When I think about it as a grandfather myself, who is going to buy a story about my grandmother recently passing away? :icon_scratch: My grandparents were born in the late 1800's :laughing7:

I'll have to switch to my mother in law

Nah, the taller the story the better, just see how tall it can get B4 they call you on it.
 

Your a natural story teller rich. I bet you left her with out a word of retort.
