Just out of curiosity. How many of you have dropped a bill or coin, on purpose or accident, and had it land on its edge? Happens to me more than Id think it would. 4 times with coins( 2 halves, 1 quarter, and 1 dime!) and at least 2 dozen plus with bills. In 10+ yrs of counting. How about yall?

I'm not sure but I think there was an old TV program, possibly Twilight Zone or something. A guy bought a newspaper and dropped a Nickel in the sellers tray. It landed on edge and he developed mine reading abilities. At the end of the day the Nickel fell and he lost his powers.
I've never thought about it but I'd say it never happens to me at all.

The Twilight Zone episode was called "A Penny For Your Thoughts," and starred Dick York (Darren from Bewitched):
