[QUOTE="BigTee44, post: 1891850, member: 41883"]The casino near us has a boat load of half dollars. They use to pay out in the 50 cent machines and also were used in the poker rooms. I went in a few months ago and asked to buy some, they said they don't sell coinage.... I know they keep all the coins and bills they consider to have any additional value above face. The cashier told me they had a large amount of(some letters were used- don't remember) old bills and silver coinage that they kept in the vault. Talk about a dream job to go through all the stuff those people had to throw into a slot machine or onto a table! Maybe it's just this casino, but most of the ones that deal with tickets don't mess with the change. Good luck to you though! On a side note, my aunt said she just got 4 unc 1928 funny back $1's at a basketball game..... said she would show them to me. Hopefully show means sell :)[/QUOTE]
