Well, I don't think she knows or cares about 40% coins, and apparently the tellers don't go through each others' stuff. This is the same place...
Heh. Almost exactly six tons. "Be a dear and help me carry these out to my truck, would you please?"
Stopped by my favorite half-searching bank this afternoon, only to find that the halves that had been sitting in an absent teller's box the last...
Huh. Looks like he had some sort of catastrophic issue and fell down on a bunch of auctions over a short period. (Failing to come through on a...
