<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dabalzak, post: 174240, member: 6611&quot;]Eek.&nbsp;&nbsp; The day before yesterday I found my best find. I went into a bank that I had no account at to make a deposit for a friend and noticed they sold some proof coins and some commems and other .999% silver (i&#039;ll call them tokens for lack of a better term) ie.. Merry Christmas tokens, and tooth fairy tokens and stuff like that. On the bottom row were some military (I thought were coins) TOKENS. I had noticed somwhere in my reading that the US MARINE COIN had sold out real quick from the mint and that they were worth quite a bit more than they had originally sold for from the mint. I purchased it and they didn&#039;t have any more, but she said she could order some more at 30 dollars a piece. I ran and checked the internet and it said that they were worth well over 60 dollars a piece up to 900 bux if they would happen to grade pr70. I called her back and told her to order me 5 more and she did happily. I also asked her if she would be willing to order me a box of halves from the fed and she said sure. </p><p><br /></p><p>Sidenote: after her saying sure. i went straight to my bank and asked them if they had decided whether or not they were going to order the halves for me yet and she said she was told no. they would not order half dollars. I said ok thanks and said I wish to close my savings account out and remove all but 10k from my checking account. I was halfway irritated and made her give me the savings account in cash. she said it was going to run her low and I said well atleast you have enough to do it.. thanks. and walked out of there with a smile. </p><p><br /></p><p>I proceded to go to the other bank and open an account. I got to the parking lot and the mrs called and said our first boer goat nanny we got a few months ago just had a kid and for me to come straight home to see the cute lil bugger. Neither of us even knew she was pregnant, but its awful cute.. </p><p><br /></p><p>anyway. I didn&#039;t make the deposit yet, but I was on the computer checking out the coin a little better and realized I didn&#039;t have the coin I did and the lady at the bank said they have already shipped the coins. She didn&#039;t come out and tell me I still have to buy them, but I feel it would be best if I did because I did ask her to order them for me. Oh well. hopefully people on ebay will still like the coins/TOKENS.</p><p><br /></p><p>This turned out to be my best find ever. That turned into my worst find/ learning experience indeed. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Tom</p><p><br /></p><p>ps. is there a way to grade these token things?</p><p><br /></p><p>thanks[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
