Altaira Pillar of the Community Canada 2517 Posts	Posted 06/14/2014 01:10 am This afternoon I saw something circular that's white outside and yellow inside in the middle of a not very busy road so being the curious person I am, I walked over to investigate (wouldn't do that on a busy road though), and I saw the Queen looking up at me! I picked it up and saved her from being run over more I love finding road coins, free money One of my friends even says I have a thing for finding money. I just have to wonder where this one came from, I've only picked up 1-cent coins before. I mean, if I drop any money, I will definitely pick it up instead of just leaving it. I found 2 cents or 1 cent 1 penny (you can't really see what the second one is) 2 days ago, I guess the luck hasn't worn off yet since the 48 hours hadn't passed. So let's see what everyone recently picked up... from the street! Report this Post to the Staff

nalaberong Pillar of the Community Canada 2805 Posts	Posted 06/14/2014 09:34 am I recently went on a short trip to Toronto and what did I find on the ground in Chinatown but this! Lucky me - this thing is worth somewhere around $3, the value of one subway fare. Edmonton has a less interesting "Downtown Dollar" that can theoretically be used for fare, but nobody wants them. But in Toronto everything needs tokens. For a token it's very secure - it's bimetallic and the edge has segmented reeding. Quite sophisticated for something smaller than a dime.

Altaira Pillar of the Community Canada 2517 Posts	Posted 06/14/2014 3:09 pm Great finds! One ride on the TTC costs $3 with cash, so I reckon a token costs the same. I've seen them before, and they are very small but yes, very secure. Congrats on the silvers, I feel like there's silver somewhere out there just waiting for me to find it !
