[QUOTE="acepharmer, post: 1523988, member: 19887"]I work in a small retail store. I often look thru the registers for anything interesting and the cashier keeps an eye out for things as well. When they empty the coins from the soda machine I try to go thru it as well. We get rolls of coins from the local bank for change and give them a look. However almost all the rolled coins we get from the bank are newly minted. Over the past couple of years I have only found 1 1950's silver dime, which was brought in by a customer that paid with $7 of dimes. Some wheaties show up once in a while, and older Jeff nickles, but none in good condition. Lots of Bicentenial quarters lately, but again, nothing in good condition. Once in a while a foreign coin will sneak in, but not often. Not sure the reason why the local branch bank we use seems to only have new rolled coins? Also, the area I live in is rural and fairly poor and I think that a large percentage of people watch their coins for silver is why not much ever shows up.[/QUOTE]
