<p>[QUOTE="Phoenix21, post: 348778, member: 7424"]Now here, I think you are being a bit assuming. Like I said, you do not know it was an elderly person. It could have been someone going to colledge that got them as a gift that turned them in. Or it could have been the family of a coin collector that passed away that didn't want to bother with selling them to a dealer. No offense, but assuming that every older coin or silver coin at a bank got turned in by a senior citizen just doesn't make much sense to me. IMO, if the original owner really did care about making some money off of them, they probably would've done a little research, or have taken them to a coin dealer. True, it could've been an elderly person trying to make ends meet, but it could have been a lot of other things too. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Phoenix <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie6" alt=":cool:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
