Interesting Find From Circulation

Here's the old veteran, photographed next to a 1971-D dollar. It has been heavily worn around the edge.

I got the Ike when I got the silver quarter so I decided to photograph them together.

My favorite Ike is a 1973-S 40% silver dollar (1973 was my birth year.)

I recently got a Series 1963 United States Note (red ink) and a 1964-D dime.

Not amazing, but definitely interesting. Found two 1956-D LWCs in my pocket yesterday. Both were EF and looked almose identical. I'm thinking I got them both at the same time from change at Walmart. Maybe there was a roll of them? Wanted to go back and try and get more, but wasn't exactly sure where I got them.

This one caught me off guard, girl came into work to buy cigarettes with a baggy of change. She dumped it out on the counter, and within the pile of clad she was paying with, was THIS.



She wasn't even 19 yet, so I have to wonder.. Which relative is missing their dime?

I hear ya jbuck.. I suspect there's a lot of that around here, like the kid several months ago that paid for an 85 cent fountain drink using not just one, but three silver coins, along with several late 40s nickels, I strongly suspect he raided a grandparent's change jar for them, but at the same time, I feel strange commenting about that to younger people because they'll just go off on a rant about how it's not stolen or something.

Last week a customer at the store spent a red Series 1963 $5 United States Note and the cashier saved it for me. The same week, my mom got a Series 1950B $5 Federal Reserve Note in change and stuck it back for me. This is an atheist bill, as it does not have "In God We Trust" on the back, which is very cool. It's kind of odd that I got two old $5 bills in the same week. Both bills are in decent shape and are obviously keepers. I also got a Series 1957 B $1 Silver Certificate. A customer spent it when another clerk was on the register, the clerk showed it to me so I bought it. So I got a triple crown (Silver Certificate, United States Note, and an old Federal Reserve Note in one week but I didn't directly find any of the bills. The $5 FRN looks like a regular pre-Series 1995 $5 bill but here are pictures of the other two:
