O.k. I think most around here might think your post is suspicious?........ But......many years ago (20?) I went to my bank where the tellers know I'm a coin collector. The teller had 3 rolls of dollars waiting just for me. I bought them of course. It was UNREAL! MORGANS, PEACE, and a few Ikes. Sometimes good stuff happens.
Incredible. Congrats.
To find rolls of Ikes is one thing, but to find them with mixed in Morgan and Peace Dollars? Nice!
Collector, occasional seller
Suspicious, yes, but...stranger things have happened. Knowing my luck, they would be someone's chinese fake dump.

Better not let @joeykoins see this thread.
You suck!!
Great score!
Not so quick, some do look suspiciously Chinese in origin.

Amazing! That would never happen to meā¦ lol
Hey.. I agree it's suspicious, but, it really did happen.
It'll never happen again, that I'm sure. LoL
Nice! What are the odds?
Rarer still
the Large size dollar wrappers. I have a few left, but they are hard to find
Envy: Wish it would happen to me.
Jealousy: You suck!!
Love these coin stories!
I can smell that silver from here.
So you're sure you cleaned them out? If not, I'd be back at Chase tomorrow morning at 0855.
That's the wrong address!

Roll hunting Ikes may not have been very popular, but now it is, By the way Ikes are getting more popular in higher grades, and the varieties are amazing for coin hunting! After all the Kennedy rolls are searched, where do you go?
Nice score there. Right place right time for sure. Congrats!

The day I left Sidney, O. to go work for ANACS I stopped at my bank to close my accounts and clear out my SDB, and I bought a roll of Ikes to use as tips on the drive. Later I noticed a holed 1879-O. When I got settled in I counterstamped it and put it on my key chain.
You Suck!!
Well done, what a score!!
Incredible score, pretty amazing!! Congrats.

Wow!
Sometimes it is beneficial to us coin people that the people paid to handle money don't really know anything about it
Refund? SNAD?
JACKPOT!!! Amazing.... what a great haul that is. I need to get back to bank hopping....Cheers, RickO

Wow!
You must have been a very good person and was rewarded accordingly.

Kennedys are my quest...
do they stick to a magnet?
There is validity in the question. Bought a collection recently. A couple Morgan dollars out of the 35 purchased, were fake. Ring test, scrape test and Sigma tested. Hoping OP scored, but more so wondering if counterfeiters are depositing fakes with Ike and gaming the bankers. Just a passing thought
But wow. What a score, if real.
In the " you suck" crowd, now.

If I were to ask the teller for Ike dollars at my bank, the odds lean heavily towards the teller saying to me, "Ike dollar? What are those?"

... and then pull out an SBA and say "Oh you mean these?"
Very nice! I would go back and clean them out on all denominations. Chances are good the same person also brought rolls of halves and quarters.
They passed the magnet test! No sticking.
This was a once in a lifetime find. I've been searching halves for almost 40 years and found plenty of silver as far back as Seated halves. Finding these coins was an accident... almost. My son was with me and asked the teller for $2 bills. She quickly said she didn't have them but did have three rolls of dollars. I expected them to be the small dollars, but once she showed me the rolls, of course I snapped them up.
No... I didn't think for even a minute there'd be anything other than IKEs in there and yes, I bought all she had.
I'm still wondering if I should have saved the wrappers. Have never, ever come across them before
I too have received Morgan & Peace dollars at my bank when I ask for "silver dollars," expecting Ikes. It was my best haul ever. I'll have to post a picture of them when/if I find it.
