$30 dimes 1953
$20 dimes, $10 cwr havles nada

$120 in halves Friday from the bank- no silver.

I did have a teller I know accidentally give me a roll of $25 in dollar coins, thinking it was halves. They are closed Saturday and Monday, but Tuesday I'm gonna take the extra $15 back to her. I remember being a teller myself back in the day and when you didn't balance out to the penny at the end of the day, they could give you grief for it. She is a good one and deserves to get the money back.

Way to go RecyclerSteve. I believe most of the members here on Realcent are very honest.

$200 in halves and all were dated 2000 to 2017. They will spend well. 2nd time from this bank.

$28.50 in miscellaneous halves from several different banks. No silver.

Back from 10 day metal detecting trip in the UK....... what a blast!! Watched a guy pull up two gold half sovereigns!

First box of halves back.......skunk......

So, what about your finds?

Anything good?

Deal

I'm guessing that Saabman found less silver in the U.K. than he does by going to his local bank...

Or, as he would put it, "Flew across the Atlantic Ocean, got a metal detector. Skunk."

Last weeks finds in the UK yielded...... 1 x ......Just kidding..... Had a great time over there ......the food was awful but the beer wasn't bad. The highlights: 1 bronze Roman coin (very toasty), 1 medieval token (lead), 1 complete medieval seal matrix, 1 hammered farthing (silver), 1 1820 half crown (silver), 2 - silver 3 pence (1861/1863), a ton of buttons and a ton of copper coins (greenies). If you're into detecting, I would highly recommend at least one trip over there..... absolutely stunning.

Wednesday's box of halves yielded....... 1 x 63 and 1 x 68!!

Sounds like an excellent time.

I thought it might be good to give an update. The teller was out sick Tuesday and Wednesday, but back Thursday. I stopped by and told her what happened. She said she balanced out to the penny on Friday. So apparently when she took the roll in she counted it as only $10 (instead of $25). Therefore, she gave me the coins for what she paid for them. She said I could keep the extra $15 and appreciated the gesture.

Also, she said nobody else came by and said she shorted them, so I didn't have to worry about it. An extra $15 for being honest- I'll take it.
