<p>[QUOTE="TubeRider, post: 2294680, member: 76481"]Young tellers are the key, they are taught nothing and know nothing about silver coinage. I have scored <i>full</i>, <i>original, uncirculated</i> bank rolls of 40% and 90% Kennedy halves. I also scored full wrapped rolls of halves with the word SILVER hand written in large letters on the roll, and they just hand them to me. Tellers HATE halves and Ikes in their drawer, there is no place to put them and they have to count them every night. They will <u>thank you</u> for taking them off their hands. Very little chance with the elderly lady teller, and if she has a chain attached to horn rimmed glasses you can forget it, she been around and knows <i>what's up,</i> your not getting anything good from her. Take whatever they hand you with halves, they will love you and deal with you again. Whatever you get that you don't want to keep (Clad rolls etc) <b>do not</b> return them to the same bank, they don't want to see those coins again. Oh yeah, because I had built a good relationship with this one bank they saved an entire sheet of uncut dollar bills for me that a customer had turned in. The bills were still in the original cardboard tube from the mint, the bank paid the customer face value and sold them to me for face value also.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
