Henri Charriere Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 I am beginning to feel your likelihood of finding something, anything, of note or value is largely dependent on where you live, work, or spend your time. I live in New York City. Every bank and ATM is a branch of the FRB. Same goes for currency. Machine-rolled and shrink-wrapped. No surprises. I should have known better when a young teller at a Chase branch told me if I liked halves, I'd love the dollar coins. I told him not really. I liked the large heavy coins. He said, "that's what I have... the older ones!" My instinct told me no way he meant Morgans. Sure enough, he came out with a dozen hand-rolled Ikes. I got 'em and gave most of them away to people who had never seen them before. My theory is, since most were dual dated Bicentennials, an old-timer held onto them hoping they'd be valuable one day. It wasn't until I became a member and read a thread about them that I learned they were worth more than face. What I would have done had I known better is screen out the better ones and give those away to the members here who collect those things. Anyway, I do enjoy reading about your latest finds! Who knows, you may yet have the last laugh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powermad5000 Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 I just got the same 05 Buffalo in my change from Dunkin Donuts today but it is not in as good of shape as that one. The face IS banged up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
