So the wife tells me she wants some ice cream. I go to the grocery store. $4 for a box. I decide to go to the self checkout and for some reason I decide to use cash instead of my usual debit card. clink, clink, clink comes my change with a $2 rebate



Half-Price-Ice-Cream...

not bad for 71 years in circulation :)

Is there anything better than getting silver coins in change? I would have made at least one more purchase just in case.

Nice find. I can remember finding a Mercury dime in my change. It was what sparked my interest in coin collecting.

Sel

Maybe you can figure this out. (first link)
Also, I'm pretty sure ice cream was a lot cheaper than the carton :)(second link)
