<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CoinOKC, post: 261177, member: 2146&quot;]I stopped by the bank yesterday (as I do every couple of weeks) and asked the Commercial Teller if she had any unusual coins or bills. Sometimes they&#039;ll have a stray Eisenhower Dollar, older Two-Dollar Bill, etc.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Well, the teller said to me, &quot;You should have been here 2 weeks ago&quot;. At this point, I felt my stomach begin to churn as I knew there would be a tale of horror about to unfold. Sure enough, she told me that a lady came in and tried to put coins into the CoinStar machine. When the machine kept refusing her coins, a bank employee went over to assist her. To make a long story short, the lady wound up having around 1000 (yes <u>ONE THOUSAND</u>) Morgan Dollars that her father had been saving for years. To their credit, the bank informed her that she needed to take the coins to a coin shop in order to get more money for them. The lady refused and told the bank that she just wanted to &quot;cash them in&quot;. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So, after all was said and done, not only did she cash in the 1000 Morgan Dollars, she additionally had several thousand silver halves, quarters and dimes that she also cashed in for face value. She also had 2 rolls of Indian Head Cents (yes, face value also...).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I asked the teller if, by some chance, any of the coins remained that I might purchase. The teller told me &quot;no&quot; because there was another teller in the bank who bought all the coins. Undoubtedly, that teller has tripled or quadrupled her salary for the year.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Ah well, I just had to share this story with all of you. Misery loves company.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
