One of my customers today paid with a handful of change for his merchandise, and among the change, there was a 1918-D penny that's pretty well worn.

My most interesting find from circulation was a 1907 Indian Head cent in XF-40 condition. Not a very valuable coin, but to a young (I was about 11 then) collector just getting into the hobby it was a find of a lifetime. This find more than anything hooked me for life. I wish I still had that coin but at the time selling it seemed to make sense. The only time I find anything interesting now is when I buy something at the LCS with cash and get some change back.
I noticed my wife has, or had, a 1972-D Kennedy half dollar the other day. When I asked her about it she just shrugged her shoulders and said she got it in change. It was well worn so I decided to leave it in the wild.

Yeah, a 72-D Kennedy is a spender any day unless it's MS or a lowball.

The IHC is a nice find. When was that?

I know no big deal but I got a 1948 Wheat cent back in my change last night from the local auction house. Always nice to add something to the hoard at face even if it is just a Wheatie.

Wheat cents are not as common as the once were. I still get excited when I see them. Nice find.

Clocking in at work yesterday I spotted this war nickle in the cash drawer.Then I poked through the quarter slot and found a silver Canadian quarter.That's two silvers at face value in one day.

It was so long ago I was Young Ephriam then. It was the early 70's. I sold it about a dozen years later along with most of my collection then. I was just getting married and in college at the time. There was something about needing food, tuition, etc.

I finally got a find at work better than a common Wheat cent or older nickel: a BU 1958 nickel! I heard they're the 4th lowest mintage for Philadelphia and it'll probably be worth something eventually!
