Message:: [QUOTE="Aggiecollector, post: 1047095, member: 19545"]Akovia, I agree it is crazy and I was stunned the first time.  Here are a few of mine from the past 18 months:  I picked up 3 rolls of which one was written in a big marker "silver" and a second "6 silver" as the teller gave them to me she said "Here, these have silver in them."  Another teller pulled out a roll and said you will like these they are all silver and proceeded to open the roll and dump them out to show me.  In Walmart, a lady paid with 2 walkers and 18 silver halves.  The cashier asked if I wanted them as she did not want to have them in her drawer.  Just last week I was at a small town bank and the teller next to the one I was talking to overheard me ask and hollared to the drive through..."Maria, you still have those silver half dollars?"  Maria gave me a roll containing 6 90% and 14 40%.  About a month ago a teller gave me 8 rolls all silver. In fact, I have all but given up box searching as it seems not much makes it to the boxes in my area.  But I have a netweork of tellers that call me when they get halves.  For example, one called me yesterday that I had not talked to since last summer as she had moved banks but she had kept my number.  I went and picked up some customer rolls from her today and found silver. It is nutts but people give it away knowing what it is.... Erin[/QUOTE]
