<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jaceravone, post: 866799, member: 9474&quot;]Just thought I would share this story with all of you as a reminder to keep your eyes open when standing in the teller line at the bank.&nbsp; At the bank that I bank with, the tellers have their change trays right up front next to the teller window.&nbsp; Every time I go to the teller window, I always make sure to take a peek at what is in their change tray....with extra special attention on the half dollar section.&nbsp; Today, I spied my second ever silver half in a tray.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The first story was kinda interesting.&nbsp; I had been collecting rolls of half dollars so I could search through them for silver ones.&nbsp; After going back and forth between this bank asking for any new rolls of half dollars, a few of the tellers asked me what I was doing.&nbsp; I proceeded to tell them and explain to them the value of what is out there.&nbsp; As I was telling them my story, I stopped short and said, &quot;For example&quot;, here is 50 cents, can I have that half dollar as I pointed one out.&nbsp; The teller kindly obliged and I explained to her that this was a 40% silver half dollar with a few dollars worth of silver in it. Her jaw dropped! </p><p><br /></p><p>Today there was no fancy story.&nbsp; I just spied this silver half and asked for a $1&#039;s worth of half dollars.....specifically the first two half dollars.&nbsp; I then just walked out and pocketed my prize.</p><p><br /></p><p>Always keep your eyes open, as these are very easy to spot when placed next to their copper clad counterparts.&nbsp; You will quickly be able to notice the difference.&nbsp; If you don&#039;t know the difference then find a silver half dollar, a silver clad half and a regular copper clad half and put them all together.&nbsp; Being able to distinguish the three types may land you a silver prize.&nbsp; Good luck and thanks for letting me share my story.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
