We've heard of fake money, but fake coins? A valley
bank says that's exactly what one woman tried to
exchange for cash, and they need your help in
catching her.

The woman entered a Desert Schools Credit Union
in the northwest valley, and exchanged rolls of
coins that were later determined to be worthless.
Surveillance pictures show the woman at the bank.
She's described as a Hispanic female with black
shoulder-length hair in her late 20's to mid 30's.
She's about 5-foot-9 and 150 pounds.
Anyone who may recognize this woman is being urged
to call Desert Schools Credit Union

It might help if the reporter stated what kind of coins were "faked."
Could it be those Morgans from China?

Hey, if they were fake Morgans, we might be looking at a cashier who let
greed stand in the way of caution. I can just see the cartoon character
with $$$ where his eye pupils should be.

It doesn't sound like fake coins were involved; rather fake rolls of
coins. Perhaps she filled paper rolls with slugs, metal rods, or some
other material of the right size and weight, then put a coin on each
end for good measure.
richie whoo
didn't say if it was a man or women.But they filled a dozen dime rolls
with pennies and passed them off in a local department store. Wasn't
found out for a day or two after transaction.
