I spent two Golden Dollar coins. One was around XF and the other was MS.
Used them for postage at the USPS. The lady didn't mind taking them.

I spent $7.00 in dollar coins at the self service checkout at Meijer grocery store. No bells, whistles, or smoke came out of the machine. I spent a 1976 bicentennial uncirculated half dollar at the C-store.

14 Ike$ on groceries

$62,827.50 to go


Diana (a co-worker) went to her hair dresser Tuesday, and paid in cash. The only change the hair dresser had was 5 Native American dollars. Diana took them since she knew she could swap them with me. She had mentioned exchanging five $1 bills for them, but I didn't have five $1 bills. When I came to work tonight, the 5 NA$ were sitting on the desk. Diana was out of the office, so I swapped them for 5 Ike$. When she returned, she laughed at "me and my coins". I gave her the option to take the Ike$, a $1 and two $2 bills, or a $5 bill. She opted for the fiver.

Spent 15 SBA at the beer store. The cashier said there's only $7.50 here since the silver coins I usually spend are halves and the dollars are gold. She thought about it for a second and figured it out.

$62,786.50 to go.

Getting ready to unleash these on the public shortly
