Oh, wait a minute....

So, after dumping a pile of pennies, I am getting ready to turn and leave the bank and the teller says:
Oh, wait a minute.... Here, I have been saving these for you.
I open my empty cloth sack and she dumps these in.

$27+ in Canadian coins including pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters, $1, and $2.
Also a handful of other foreign coins.

At .80 on the dollar exchange with AGgressive Metal at Commonwealth Coin & Currency, that is $21+ for me. Paid for gas for my trip.

This never happens in Canada. American coinage is accepted at par everywhere even the vending machibes and Coinstar.

That is great! I certainly hope you are taking care of that teller.. she's a keeper! This is why you always want to maintain positive relationships with your tellers. :mrgreen:
