<p>[QUOTE="TheBigH, post: 295090, member: 9866"]Also, collectible coins cannot be purchased for more than face value at a bank. Only the U.S. Mint, coin dealers and private collectors can sell coins for more than face value. If a bank tries to charge you extra for a roll of any denomination of coin, do not pay it. Ask for the manager. If you are a member of the bank, and the manager wants to charge you more, promptly leave and call the main branch on the phone and complain. They have to sell you coins for face value, if you are a member. No ifs, ands or buts. The banks usually have pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters on hand, but sometimes you have to order dollar coins and half dollars. To do that, just ask an employee. If you do so, some banks will tell you to pay extra, but again, that is not correct. Some will, however, tell you to buy the whole box, which is sort of a grey area.</p><p> </p><p>Well, good luck if you decide to pursue roll searching, or what I call the hobby of kings with less resources than others.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
