I love my wife.

My little Island Girl earned her keep this morning. As I mentioned before she is a Head Teller/Vault Teller at her bank. She called me here at work a few minutes ago and tells me that a business had dropped a bunch of rolled change in the night drop. In it she found 8 rolls of quarters with "1964" written on them. Well my wonderful wife opened them and sure enough EVERY ONE is filled with 1964 quarters. Of course she immediately changed them out and the rolls went into her purse.

At the current coinflation quote that is 57.8713 ounces with a value of $1871.56 that's going to cost me $80 - 1.41 cents an ounce.

Guess she earned a dinner out this weekend.

Sounds like that will bring your DCA down. How many ounces does she usually find a month?

The past 4 or 5 months she's been bringing home around $4 - $5 face a month.

This is her 2nd biggest score. Once she brought home 32 rolls of war nicks.

Thats how you do it BamaJoe. Was wondering what your hook into the bank was with all those boxes you search. Great score for your wife on those quarters!

Conga rats to you and your wife. Nice score. What is amazing is that that scene must be repeated in banks all across North America every day. We should all go to work at a bank.

How many people are married to a head back teller who knows all coins minted prior to 1965 are silver and worth 30 times their face value?

99.9% here can only dream to have a set-up like this.

You're certainly a lucky man... and modest too :P

That's awesome. I will give you 2x face for them right now. Think of that- you could instantly double your money! :) I would say that this deserves a whole day out, not just an evening.

That is amazing. She has the best job any realcent member could ask for.

You better take her out to a nice dinner.

It is $1.41/ oz not 1.41 cent/ oz. You wish you got it all for 80 cents

Right? I've applied to half a dozen banks within this past week that our at or near my campus. I'd be willing to take half of minimum wage if I got to go through all the coins.

She already knows that. I freely admit that she spoils me rotten. To all you young guys that are not married yet let me tell you the secret - Asian women. It sad to say, but the vast majority of American women can not compare. Most of you probably would't believe me if I told all they ways she spoils me.

Next week will be our 18th anniversary and I still freely admit she was the smartest thing I've ever done.

I agree 100%. Most American women are spoiled, nagging brats and are very demanding. Asian women are geniune, caring, selfless and treat their men much better. At least this is my experience with them.

There is a pretty, very friendly Filipina woman who works at a local bank branch that I was considering asking out. If/when I start scoring silver quarter rolls, I'll let you guys know :D
