Burks Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 I just went through the most disgusting $5 worth of cents EVER. Each roll had a heads worth of hair, the coins look like a battery exploded on them, and 50% were ruined. Did find over 100 pre-1982 cents (didn't save the 82's). Most are soaking in olive oil or acetone trying to remove the crud. I'll never go back to that bank again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gxseries Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 Are you sure there aren't other coin collectors around your area Burks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burks Posted March 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 Are you sure there aren't other coin collectors around your area Burks? Oh I'm sure there are, in fact I'm positive. But man these things were nasty! Should have come with a "hazardous waste" sticker. Didn't really expect anything special. Just got them to waste some time over spring break.

Didn't really expect anything special. Just got them to waste some time over spring break. I like that. Thank goodness I am pretty content over the circulation of commemorative coins in here down in Australia. Hooray to those who use them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Stujoe Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 Yeah. The car wash thing might make sense... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burks Posted March 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2006 Yeah. The car wash thing might make sense... Never thought of that. Instead of a bar on every corner like Crestline, there's a car wash on every corner. Except I find the same long black hair roll after roll.....gah. Coinstar can deal with them! Acetone really isn't working to much. I'll see what 24 hours does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's been 14 years since I did spring break in college, but I think you are missing the point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to someplace warm wasn't an option. No money means no plane. I don't drink either so.........video games, TV, and here were my options. Going fishing would be much better buuuut, buddies had to work and the weather wasn't exactly "nice". Plus that little green card was expired.
