A while ago I posted about a teller who had purchased some silver dollars from a customer at a buck each. I have been waiting for her to bring a few in for me to check out. Yesterday she tells me she forgot to gather them up from the back porch. I say, what are they doing on the back porch? She says she put them out to dry off..."I cleaned them all with Comet cleanser to make them shiny again"
*sigh*
Hope they're just a bunch of '21

I don't know whether to laugh or cry. What a shame. Oh, well, it's still silver, right?
When I die, I want to go like Grandpa did. He died in his sleep..... Not screaming and hollering like all the passengers in his car.

And when you sell them on Realcent in Buy It Now, I hope you will appropriately entitle the thread as "Comet Coins!"
