<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 301967, member: 4552"]It happens more than people know. I remember some years back talking at work about coins. One person said he didn't know there was a value to any coins. He had a big jar of dimes his parents gave him for a wedding present that they had from when they were kids. He took them to a bank. $1,200.00 worth of dimes. Occationally I have breakfast with seveal people in the neighborhood. I usually leave a few half dollars for tips. One of the other people at our table produced a pile of Walker Halves and asked me if they were worth anything. He said he has been dumping them at the bank for years. Used to have thousands of them. During a construction site a worker was finding many old coins from back in the 20's. Took them all to a bank and had some rejected so he threw them away. Thought they were fakes or kids money. Can you imagine coins with 2's or 3's or even a big 5 on them? </p><p>Happens way to often.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
