[QUOTE="lincoln, post: 2061868, member: 24970"]News from a local bank today (I apologize if this is old news; I just heard about it). I went into a different branch of a national bank today, told them I was a collector and had an account, and asked if they had any rolled coins, of any denomination, that had been brought in by customers. The lady in charge of the vault (actually very nice) told me the bank headquarters had recently sent a notice out to all branches to not save any coins for any customers. She said if there is a perceived extra value to the coins…and many of the bank staff know if there might be, they cannot be saved for an individual. There was a lawsuit in Washington state regarding this issue. One roll hunter found out a local branch was saving rolls for another guy. The one who didn’t get the coins sued the bank! The teller was fired. So, to prevent further agitation and litigation, the bank said “No more” in all of their branches. In conclusion, they will still give you rolls, but your request for CWR may not be granted. Be nice.[/QUOTE]
