last night when I arrived at my first kitty to feed, I noticed there was something else there waiting for me. Fantastic!  |

Today taking the dog for a walk, I only found 6 cents, but 3 of the 6 cents were wheat cents. A 1941, 1956 and 195#. I've found one but never 3.  |

As it's spring in the northern hemisphere the coins have sprouted. It's been really good last few days but today was better. The weather is nice, it's in the 60°s and the sun is shining. Although I did this path a few days ago, the coins are almost coming up quicker than I can get them. Like I said today was a good day. $5.19  |

another day, another dollar. most people wouldn't see that lying there, but I do.  it was the second thing I saw when I rolled into the parking lot (the first being the hungry kitty running to me). see that dollar lying there in the scattered mulch & stones?   I also nabbed an additional $1.45 in stray coin tonight, so it was a really good night. |

Well done, Mr Pink! I haven't done as well as you, but have just had a very strange experience! I was walking back from the beach after my (almost) daily swim in the English Channel, and I spotted a coin lying in the road. I picked it up, expecting it to be an English penny. But when I scraped the dirt off, I found...  ... a grotty 1996 Zincoln, 3,600 miles from home! |

The seasons have definitely changed. Same place I walked, same place I found $5, yesterday I found $1, and then 10 minutes later same place I walked the day before I find another $5.
Ended up depositing $22 in the bank.
A good few days!

Well done, hfjacinto! All I found on today's walk was a solitary 1988 British penny - a much more typical find than my last coin!  I'm actually quite happy to find any pre-1992 UK penny, as they go into my hoard to use in squashed penny machines. Pure bronze ones are better for elongating than the new bronze-clad steel type. |

i wasn't planning on another post so soon, but.... it was a good night, I scratched up $3.47 in scattered change. of that, two of the nine quarters I found were picked off the pavement at a gas station, near the pumps, actually:  guess what one of them was! no foolin:   2019-W RoNR my 5th W quarter, my 3rd RoNR, and the 2nd W I've picked off the ground. ironically, the last W I picked was from the same gas station. it has a little circulation wear, but also has unfortunate obverse rim dings (minor road rash) and a generous dollop of black kosmik krud.
