About once a week I take about five minutes and look through the coins which have accumulated on my desk. I usually find one or two that I add to my collection. The remainder goes into our vacation fund.

Here's what I found tonight.

BU West Virginia Statehood Quarter
BU 2005 Jefferson nickel
BU Nevada Statehood Quarter
AU 1981 Jefferson nickel
Two Adams Presidential dollars
BU Texas Statehood Quarter
1993 Roosevelt dime, slightly off-center strike

Not much, but it's always fun to search!!

I think the Mexican Peso is worth almost 10¢ face value based on the exchange rate. Don't know if it's up or down lately.

Hi, A lady gave me a foreign coin out of the cash register today. It is an English penny, 2006. It looks a little bit bigger than our U.S. pennies.

I received four brand new Idaho quarters in change today. Three came from Walmart, and one from another store.

I got a 1972 S Lincoln Cent in change from the ice cream truck man today. No double die though but an interesting find nonetheless

I got 2 consecutively numbered $1 star notes from my credit union a couple weeks ago. Not big, but not bad.

Scored a '48 Roosevelt at the grocery store this week. Not anything fancy but it was kinda cool to find silver.
