...tellers eagerly awaiting my arrival so they can get rid of these: Only the second 1963 LT $5 I have gotten from a bank, the $20s are two series 1950, one 1963, one 1963-A and a 1974. I will probably spend the 1963s and the 1974 though. This last week was pretty decent for silver finds too, searching rolls I found 4 war nickels, 3 silver dimes and three halves.
The teller that sold them to me had accumulated them over a period of about three months - she is their senior teller and trainer - she keeps them for awhile to show the other tellers what they are etc, that the paper on the pre-1963's will not react like the dry paper on the 1963 and later notes etc. After everybody sees them, then she sells them to moi.
Curiously I have found that the flowers imply more than necessary, the chocolates are too ordinary and that the Sunkist fruit candies keep the goodies coming.
