Pretty big rim ding at 11:00 on the reverse. Even if it was worn slick, you scored huge, though.

I wish I had those kinds of opportunities.

I think it's AU 53 and worth about $30. Numismedia has is at $32 and G4 only goes down to $28

I don't think the cashier would be allowed to take more than a dollar for a dollar change. The till would be off or else she would have to take cash and not put it in the till, either of while could be trouble.

And the cashier didn't lose out on anything as it wasn't her coin.

Think lucky....you can get lucky

I was walking across McDonalds car park recently when a $100 bill came gently blowing towards me.

Another time in Brisbane I was walking down the Queen Street mall....it was 5pm and getting dark (office workers rush hour) and a $10 bill was just waving at me...people were walking by it seemingly oblivious...amazing - it was definitely mine for the taking.



Rest in Peace

I heard this story where a person got change from McDonalds and instead of quarters, they got SBA dollars. They were saying how ignorant some of the younger generations are. They kept on exchanging dollar bills for SBAs and got quite a few. I think about 10 or 20.

I'm still in shock that they had a Morgan. The apartment complex is low income, so I assume somebody wanted their pack of smokes more than they wanted that worthless (to them) Morgan. The lady behind the counter seemed happy to give it to me because it made the nightly deposit easier.

I took some better pictures of it. It looks gold in these pictures, but it's actually more silver with some golden toning.
