I have a new Nickname!

Postby SilverDragon72 » Mon Jun 25, 2012 10:30 pm

I went to my CU today to order a shipment of Nickels and Pennies! Was chatting with one of the tellers and another one says, "hey, it's the Nickel Guy!" :)

They went on to ask me about what I do with all my coins I get from them. I proceeded to tell them a little bit about my coin collecting hobby and maybe even convinced one of them to join us!

Kinda made my day, actually! Now, where did I put those candies....

No, they call me the penny guy. :lol: Until I leave, then they probably call me other names. Although at one branch I am The Cookie Guy. They love chocolate chip cookies. I think HCBTT is called the Penny King at his banks!

I was called "the penny guy" by a teller back in the 80s!

I was picking out U.S. pennies, they were worth about 40% more back then and
being young I had a lot of time on my hands back then. ^_-

The teller that called me that was one who floated between different branches
and recognized me from annother branch.

No longer the "penny guy", but just one of "those penny people" :lol:

I think we all know who the real penny guy is. I won't mention any names, but his initials are Adam Young.

Well, I hand sorted 2 boxes of pennies today. I had a decent percentage of coppers too, around 20 percent! In addition to that, I also found more than 20 Wheats! Not a bad day if I do say so myself :)

2 boxes left to sort....hope to finish them by the end of this week. We'll see!
