While I have been using cash less and less since I moved to Arizona and am now working from home I still check every coin and bill I get and try to peek in cashier's drawers (without getting creepy) for oddities.

In the last 2 months I have found the following keepers:

1978 French 1 Franc coin (in place of a quarter);

2 Bicentennial quarters (although they aren't really worth anything I keep them anyway.);

1 1943P " War Nickel";

1 1963 and 1 1964 Roosevelt dimes (week or so apart);

3 1940's and 2 1950's common wheat cents;

30 or so pre-1982 LMC's;

3 2009 cents;

1 SBA dollar (from the service desk at the grocery).

I saw a drawer full of golden dollars at a local Walgreens and the gal said they get them all the time. It is near a Sun City retirement development, she said the grannies like them...

You had some nice finds there. I just went through a box of dimes and did find one 2009D. Not a single 2015. Tons of 2014's
