<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TOLS196024, post: 79369, member: 3884&quot;]It appears that I have to defend my fellow bank tellers again.&nbsp; Banks simply don&#039;t keep any quantity of two dollar bills or halves because no one wants them.&nbsp; In fact tellers try their best to gid rid of any two&#039;s, halves, or dollar coins that they get in.&nbsp; This isn&#039;t because they don&#039;t want to be helpful, but because it is next to impossible to get rid of these items.&nbsp; I can think of only one customer at my bank that ever asks for $2 bills or dollar coins.&nbsp; So, there is no point in keeping them in my drawer.&nbsp; In fact, tellers can only keep a certain amount of money at their station at any given time (due to fear of robbery), so they try to keep only items that they commonly use in their drawer.&nbsp; As for the new nickels, banks cannot order them from the Fed.&nbsp; While the Federal Reserve did set up a program to distribute boxes of the new State Quarters when they come out, no such program exists for the new nickels.&nbsp; So, it is totally luck of the draw as to whether or not the bank receives new or old nickels from the Fed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
