Hello there, I recently went to my local bank in hopes for some kennedy-halves, for the purpose of looking for errors. The bank teller gave me 7 she had on hand, and when I asked if that was for sure all they had, the teller next to her said "We have plenty in the back". The teller asked me how much I was interested in, very reluctantly. I bought 2 rolls, no errors, but to my suprise.. Between the 2 rolls (their was none in the 7 I bought seperatly) I found 16 silver halves. I never really got into the whole meltdown value or bullion and such.. But I am wondering in reference to the average silver price within a month or so, should I go back to see if I can snag some more? Any help would be very appreciated. Thanks in advance! -Allout123
What do you think? You're finding silver half dollars and you're asking what to do? I'm at a loss. What is wrong with our education system?
I'm sure finding them and the excitement it generated was part of the reason you posted as well as the question. It's always nice to share a find with others. Besides the obvious yes to your question, do not returned the unwanted coins to the same bank. Bank's don't like the extra work this creates and will not be appreciative of any future requests.
absolutely go back! 40% silver are about 4-5 times face value and 90% are between 10-12 times face value. Your mileage may vary.
Oh! Happy Day! Yes indeedy you go back! But maybe you better bring a few c-notes and make fewer, larger purchases. Maybe bring mom/dad too if you suspect any problems might develop. And go to the friendlier/more helpful teller if you can. And go when they are NOT busy. And be really nice and polite no matter what. And don't be worrying about the silver market, your job is to squirrel the acorns. From which your mighty oaks are about to grow. And wait til you have $25, or $50 dollars face value B4 you try to sell. More is even better. You'll get a better price, plus shipping and insurance is pro-rata cheaper. And that's all for now, but I bet I missed plenty. Congratulations on discovering this opportunity! Hope it works for you.
