It's amazing what's still out there.


Even more amazing how someone just left it on a garage floor... That's why I walk with my head down..

Whoever left it must not have imagined it's value of five cents.

If my arithmetic is correct, that coin is three quarters of a century old. That's fairly cool just by itself. And as Coinfrog says, if you get desperate, you can use it to pay the tax on a really cheap cup of coffee.

Very cool. Thanks for sharing. This thing survived 75 years to finally run into you. Neat.

Ok, is nobody else making the connection that it looks like he was ran over and is actually bleeding. For a parking lot find its pretty cool even if it were a modern!

Me too! I found about $50 over the 4 years I was at high school by doing this. My friends started getting annoyed at all the money I was finding.

That was my first thought when I saw it.. Not sure what the read is but it does look like it's bleeding....

Stuffed furniture, way better than just watching the ground. I visited some friends and they wanted me to contribute to purchase a pizza. Went through their furniture, we had enough for two pizza.

Found a worn $10 bill on the ground at my apt. complex last week. Had a nice chocolate shake and sent a $4 payment to the credit card
