"Rosevelt" dimes from 46-64 were made of 90% silver and 10% copper giving them a melt value in today's prices of about $0.35. The mint put a stop to this by giving all of our coins zinc cores which is worth a lot less.
Coincidentally, this allows for some really interesting melt results with pennies. get a candle, pliers, and a penny and start heating that ***** up. The zinc will go molten waaay before the copper loses its tensile strength which makes the pennies look like something from a Salvador Dali painting. ****in' science!

Not saying it was a good idea, just read about it. The dude had made a killing shorting the market in 2008 and built a literal fortress in the middle of nowhere in Texas

Update: BofA has been hooking us up with uncirculated bills, we had to use a handtruck to get it in my car! I have found lots of interesting notes in the stacks. Got some neat serial numbers one that was all 9's and one that was 87654321 tons of star notes too.
Here is a video of the machine I had to set up to stick glue dots on the notes:

Lowend: I am not mailing it all at once. It is a survey that is getting two bills stuck to it, to make people want to mail it back after they fill it out.
My branch of Bank of America called and said they can get me $70,000 on Tuesday. I had the owner of the company I work for call back and figure it out. B of A said they need a deposit into a B of A account. My boss said "you have a B of A account, can I write you a check and have them take it out of your account?"
NOPE hells nope frack no NO no NO!!!! LOL no.
I would than have to pay tax on it!
The company is just going to start an account there.
