Message:: [QUOTE="VACookey, post: 1131219, member: 29547"]Had an interesting day with the bank today. I went back to see if they had any more rolls of halves. They had 4. But they told me they can't sell them to me anymore after today because I don't have an account. But I do, it's just a CD. They said no, it has to be a transaction account "in case anything goes wrong, we can access the money from your account." What could possibly go wrong? Perhaps they thought I was laundering $20 bills? Anyway, I called the manager and he explained it much better. He said, when they exchange money they need to have a record of the transaction. There is nothing in the computer that allows them to make a record of the transaction with a CD account. Ok, that made sense. So I guess I'll open an account if I intend to keep doing this. Anyway, I got several rolls of different coins. I didn't find much. I got a blueish toned Washington state quarter which was cool. A bunch of decent nickels but I'm not sure which dates I should keep. However, at the gas station today I asked if she had any weird coins. She said no but then as she was giving me change said "oh, here's something weird. Not sure what it is but it's in my pennies. It's yours." It was a Netherlands 5 Euro cents. I also got a decent circulated Hawaii quarter. Oh, and a $1 star note. Good day or not?[/QUOTE]
