90% SILVER AT THE BANK TODAY

I was cashing a check at the drive-thru this morning and on a spur of the moment, asked the teller if there were any half dollar rolls in the vault. She said "No, but I have a ton of them in my drawer." Parked the car and went in. She takes out a handful of halves from her drawer and spreads them out to count them. I immediately spotted a Walking Liberty and held my breath as she counted them up. As she's doing it, she grabs a couple of shiny JFK's and put them back in the drawer. Started to worry that she was grabbing the silver for herself and was wondering what I would say if she took back the Walker, too. Fortunately, she didn't. When all was said and done, I had $8.50 in halves, (a little short of a ton) but in addition to the 45-P Walker, there were two 64-P JFKs. Woo-hoo!!

    You wouldn't say anything because it's within her right to do so. A perk of a crappy job.
