I finally made a dump at a TD bank today. It's been a long while. I had to go into the lobby anyway so I grabbed a handful of change from my truck and threw it in the counter so I had an excuse to swipe the magnet. I only put $3.00 in change in the counter. I got $0.90 in Canadian. Plus in the bottom reject chute, I got $1.85 in bent US coins plus some euros. A nice little score!

I forgot what part of NH you're in, but the southern half of the State looks like a choice hunting ground. :thumbup:

Yes, My area is very saturated with TD's, most of which have Penny Arcades. At least 9 that I frequently pass in my normal travels. I am spoiled :) - Lately I suffer from too many TDs and not enough coins.

Sunday I got .35 :clap:

Bet someone chucked it on the ground because it was "worthless" Canadian money.

I hadn't thought of that. It was pretty near where I parked, and I found it on the way out, not the way in.

Recently traveled to Alberta Canada with a group from my church. Was visiting the gift shop in the Prince of Wales Hotel at Waterton National Park and beside the cash register was a take a penny, leave a penny bowl full of Canadian cents. Since they no longer use pennies and don't need them I decided to take a look to see what I could find and found a 1940 Canadian cent.

Waiting at a branch as I type..

I dumped around $50 in dimes and the machine counted a VERY long time :thumbup:

Maybe getting someone else's pennies? Maybe better? They're fixing a sensor malfunction, so I'm on pins and needles...heh, heh

Ok, don't hate me.

I put in exactly $45 in dimes and the payout was $149.49

After they fiddled with cleaning the sensor the manager handed me 5 silver Roosevelts she had been saving for me.

I drove two blocks to get gas and reinvested some of my winnings in a scratch ticket:

There's a $25 buy-in Texas Hold 'Em tournament tomorrow night. Oh yeah, I'm definitely going. :lol:

I forgot to check completed auctions. There's a guy "asking" $125ish on a Buy it Now...but he's probably basing that on NGC Online World Coin Values, which is listing the 1941 xf at $140. My experience - they're just a tad high on their prices. :roll:
