—EMPIRE W ANT ADS PAT—
SILVER DOLLARS DROP
OUT OF (IRCUI N;
WHERE DO THEY GO!
—
There must be a coin collector
behind every bush judging by the
rapid disappearance of silver dol
lars from circulation in Juneau,
bank officials here are thinking.
Due to the high cost of shipping
in silver the First National Bank
here recently experimented with
using dollar bills but 50 per cent of
the customers screamed for silver
so resumption of 50 per cent silver
and 50 per cent paper dollars is
currently being tried.
Local collectors as well as tour
ists carefully examine silver dollars
given in change seeking rare coins.
The prize is an 1870 dollar minted
at San Francisco which is so rare
it is not even mentioned in the U.S.
Treasurer's report. In an uncircul
ated condition it is worth $1,650.
The 1921 Liberty head Denver
minted dollar Is popular in Juneau.
Collectors also dream of picking up
1873 and 1893 dollars minted in San
Francisco and a 1903 one minted in
New Orleans. The 1903 dollars min
ted in New Orleans are also rare
because in 1918 they were called in
and melted down for silver bullion
to send to India and to make small
domestic coins.
At the B. M. Behrends Bank
.there are sufficient silver dollars
to satisfy present demands.
