Cruel customer wrapped rolls.

Postby henrysmedford » Sat Jun 15, 2013 2:19 pm

The bank called and said that a customer brought in $75 of customer wrapped rolls and we could buy them. One of the rolls were marked steel cents. When I got home Franklin said looks like someone died. When we opened them they were full of zinc.

Not a total loss today we got at the LCS $10 FV of rolls of Canadian cents for $8 almost all copper and some were AU. And got a lot of NU coins at 6 cents each.

Sounds like some other sorter got lucky and you got his dump complete with reused wrappers. Total bummer :( :thumbdown: :cry:

Oh, this is the worst-looking hat I ever saw. What, when you buy a hat like this I bet you get a free bowl of soup, huh?

Oh, it looks good on you though.

When I get bored I write 1964 or 1959 in old timey cursive on my half dollar rolls.

Actually had the teller buy all the rolls I returned on spot

:PMy best friend's brother recently stopped paying for his storage unit. My friend, who is friends with the owner, asked if he could go in to the unit real quick before it went up for auction. He went and closed all the boxes in the unit, and wrote on the sides of them things like 'baseball cards', 'gold & coins', and 'silverware'.

It's all junk. :P but somebody's gonna get a bit upset at the auction.

I agree with Cougar. I hope your copper doesn't dry up.

false advertising!. This is the penny sorters version of picking up that hot girl at the bar, and finding out she really isnt a girl.... :o
