Message:: [QUOTE="afm1982, post: 1479467, member: 15483"]This afternoon during my lunch break, I  stopped in at a "new favorite" bank branch to deposit a check. Lo and  behold, the teller mentioned that he had six of the large dollar coins.  So, I'm thinking, "cool, a couple of Ikes." He pulls them out, and I  instantly notice something amiss. Two of the coins are noticeably  larger. It turns out, two of the coins were 1987 Modern Walking Lib  dollars. Yes the ones that are stamped "1 Oz Fine Silver". In all my years, I have never seen a modern bullion coin in a bank  teller's drawer. The coin says flat out that it is pure silver. To think  that someone thought is was only a dollar, and deposited it at a bank.  (correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't know if these coins were every  available for sale for $1.)  Then, the teller had to think it was only a  dollar. and no body else asked about it. Then, the best part..... he sold them to me for a buck each. <img src="http://forums.wheresgeorge.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]
