<p>[QUOTE="scottishmoney, post: 1755219, member: 12789"]Depends on the bank, the tellers and most importantly on the "vault teller" - he or she and the manager are the people you want on your side. I "freestyle" into banks and credit unions I don't have accounts with but have gotten in good with certain people there. I explain clearly what I am looking for and tell them about my reward programme ie if I find 100 year old coins they get a box of candy - one time after buying up a bag of $200 worth of nickels from a bank I don't have an account with but found someone willing to sell me the nickels - I found a 1908 Liberty. I was literally back at that bank within an hour with their promised box of candy - the manager got called out and I met her and the vault teller. Now I am on call when they have goodies come in - about three weeks ago a call for a 1967 40% half.</p><p> </p><p>I have only ever run into one or two stinkers, curiously in a bank I have accounts with and only in a couple of branches. You learn to bypass them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
