!UPDATE! The bank called and------

Postby henrysmedford » Fri Apr 06, 2012 9:12 pm

The bank called and said someone dropped off a $100 in CWR of cents and most rolls were marked and they did not have room for them in there small in store branch vault. Some off the rolls are marked copper others 1960s and some 1970s. One roll was fat and Franklin found the three non US coins one of the rolls was AU 1964 cents. When I asked they said a young couple cash them in and they were off to Seven Feathers Casino Resort. Franklin is going to look at them in the AM and I will post the finds.

Hot = Stolen and/or wanted. ?

Young people with rolls that look twenty years old.

So today I said to myself what if the young couple drop of other rolls of coins than cents. So I called the bank and they did so I bought all $885 of a mix of .05,.10 and 25 cent rolls. The first roll I got a 1943-S war nick. I then it was mostly duds. But we got five clad S mint proof quarters a 1970-S,1972-S,1974-S,1976-S,1977-S an a car wash token. And a bank roll marked 2005-D Kansas.
