<p>[QUOTE=&quot;scottishmoney, post: 1257281, member: 12789&quot;]I am honest with them and tell them that I save old money.&nbsp; You&#039;d be surprised, every once in awhile you will come across a teller that is sort of interested in the money they see, and want to know more about it.&nbsp; I know quite a few tellers, I have accounts in a lot of different banks - for the purpose of saying I have an account(even if it is only a minimal sum).&nbsp; A lot of the time most of the tellers really don&#039;t know a lot about older coins, and well, some might not wanna know.&nbsp; But a good majority of them are out to make customers happy, you only come across the old curmudgeon once in a blue moon - mine came last week while asking for nickel rolls.</p><p><br /></p><p>I buy $10 gift cards, say McD, and hand them out to tellers that have saved lots of stuff for me.&nbsp; I also find that some of them have some interests in coins, one was asking about British sixpence coins for weddings, so I dug out a handful of old silver ones and brought them in for her so she can give them out to her daughters.&nbsp; Another teller likes Chuck E. Cheese tokens, well I come across quite a few of those from coin machine reject slots, so she got all those.</p><p><br /></p><p>Tellers like them make the &quot;impossible&quot; possible.&nbsp; Officially they cannot order boxes of coin for customers, but somehow, every other week, I get a call that my boxes are ready for pickup.&nbsp; Gees, I have my banks on speed dial on my cellphone - their calls are the ones I don&#039;t wanna miss - and of course they show up on my caller ID.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
