RE: Finding Silver When You Least Expect It
Back in my bar-tending days, I would scavenge the cash drawer every night for silver or anything else interesting. I managed to find a couple junk quarters. I mostly ran across older notes. It is amazing what you can find by just paying attention.
Nice! Years ago, a friend's sister worked in the cash office of a major retail store and the store manager used to allow her to purchase coins at face value. This was the late 90s and she used to find several silver coins each month. I always check my change, but since I was driving, we honestly might have missed this coin had it not been for that unique silver coin sound.
Yeah, that is why I could never work in a bank. I just wouldn't be able to help myself from switching out coins, hehe.
Same here. I would be checking dates on every old looking coin or dropping them on the counter to see if they "sounded silver".
