<p>[QUOTE=&quot;coinman1234, post: 2303349, member: 51208&quot;]I would ask around local banks. What I usually say is, &quot;Hello, I collect old coins and bills and am just wondering if you have seen any older money lately&quot; Then clarify what you you are looking for by saying, &quot;The old bills with the red or blue seals, wheat pennies, buffalo nickels, or any dimes quarters or halves with a silver edge instead of copper&quot; </p><p><br /></p><p>In the past year I have found 5 $1 silver certificates, 4 $2 red seals, 3 $5 red seals (oldest 1928g), 1934c $5 Silver Certificate, 1950 $5, 1934 $10 silver certificate, 1934a $10. 1928 $50 redeemable in gold. Many silver halves, dimes and quarters, many wheat cents and buffalo nickels. Most of this is stuff saved by a couple of tellers who have gotten to know me at the bank. </p><p><br /></p><p>I have found that if you are very polite and stopby every now and then than they will set stuff aside for you.</p><p><br /></p><p>In fact, I would check the service desk at the supermaket too. One supermaket saved a silver certificate, 3 silver quarters and a merc in for me in an envelope one day. I have also found silver halves too. My greatest circulation find ever was 32 Walking Liberty Halves and an Uncirculated silver quarter, found at a supermarket. They were so happy to finally get rid of the halves which they had for months that they thanked me even more than I thanked them, I think I thanked them over 40 times though <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Good luck, I hope you find some great finds <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
