<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Neal, post: 25236083, member: 43872&quot;]Almost certainly, although it is possible it was from an original bank roll that somebody found stashed somewhere or even an old &quot;penny jar&quot; that Grandma had kept for years.&nbsp; I worked in a bank as a teenager.&nbsp; One day in the late 1960s someone came in and deposited a few thousand dollars in silver.&nbsp; Seems their grandfather had been burned by the bank failures in the Depression and never trusted them.&nbsp; He put all his savings in silver, mostly halves, in a trunk under his bed.&nbsp; When he died his heirs deposited it all, consisting mostly of Barbers and Walkers.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
