Today: a 2012-P El Yunque Quarter.

That makes five P-mint ATB Quarters I've found in Denver circulation since January 2010.

Decided to try a new change pool and work a shift at a different store than my usual one, found not one but TWO 1963-D silver rosies!

Had some good luck yesterday. The first person at work paid with a 1972-S cent and the next one paid with a 1917 plain wheat!

Even better luck with finding wheats in the till at work... picked up a 1951-D and 1955-D three days ago and a 1939 plain last night.

From 1 roll of pennies that I grabbed for my change machine at work, I pulled 2 wheats and a 1977 clipped planchet.

I also found a 1961 dime in a role that I shouldn't have used at all, but my manager had dropped a box and after missing a roll told me to just put it in my drawer, I break it open and there's the dime!

A couple weeks ago, I visited a bank near my house, asked for "anything weird" and then listed some examples ("canoe dollars", 50-cent pieces, etc.). Apparently my people skills paid off, with this lovely assortment of teller tray foreigns I received for free last weekend!

- 1993 UK 1 pence - red/brown
- 1995 Mexico 10 centavos - I always forget that these have coin alignment
- 2000 South Africa 1 cent - tiny little copper thing
- 2009 China 1 yi jiao - covered in weird smears
- 2010 Netherland Antilles 25 c - an absolutely beautiful coin
- 2011 India 1 rupee - lovely frosty finish
