hc8604 Valued Member United States 303 Posts	Posted 11/11/2007 5:03 pm Since I just joined this forum.. I will list what I have found so far. My parents own (well owned and now retired after almost 20 years) a restaurant. Over the last 7 years of it my family and me found the following: 1910S Wheat cent countless amouts of wheat cents 6 rolls of wheat cents direct from the bank(oldest found was 1918P) damaged Buffalo nickel 6 silver nickels about 20 or so silver dimes 1945P&D quarters 1953D quarter 1954S quarter 1962D quarter 1964D 3x quarters 1995S proof (damaged through circ.) Many recent Canadian coins, Mexican pesos (we live in south Texas so there is going to be a lot of those), an American sized quarter English coin, an Arabic coin. Several $1 currency series dating from the 60's-80's Binary note (eg 10110010 computer language for those you don't know what binary numbers are, can't remember the exact serial number though) 1934 series $10 1950 series $10 $20 with a serial number of X00003000B (X can't remember which reserve bank it came from) 1974 series $20 1969 series $100 (it was almost unc condition except it has a small tear on top) Found in change: several wheat cents 1943P nickel 1937D quarter (my dad would have probably spent this if I wasn't there to tell him) From my trip to the bank: 1964 half (the teller had change out in a tray and I noticed a copperless edge half dollar, turned out to be a 1964 half) I wished I had some banks here locally that have halfdollars, but then again I need a few hundred dollars to spare to exchange them, which I don't have. I guess that's all I can remember so far. I don't have all of the money with me since I am at college right now and I left a lot back home. Report this Post to the Staff
thingee Pillar of the Community United States 2177 Posts	Posted 11/11/2007 9:26 pm I found 2 odd ones in a roll of nickles. One bi-metal Mexican dollar coin. Also a token that reads PGA TOUR CHARTER MEMBER PARTNERS CLUB. Don't know how that got in there. It's black and bronze in color, has a figure swinging a club. But it is the size of a nickel...so I guess size is all that matters. Report this Post to the Staff

hc8604 Valued Member United States 303 Posts	Posted 11/14/2007 01:08 am Thanks Gary :) Also with the Wheat rolls that my mom found, we got a Wheat cent folder 1942-1970s and almost filled it up a few months ago. Edited by hc8604 11/14/2007 01:10 am Report this Post to the Staff

Gary Burke Rest in Peace United States 3730 Posts	Posted 11/18/2007 12:24 am I really don't know what I have here. It is roughly the same size and color as a U.S. dime, and I received it in change today. I think it's Polish. The obverse features an eagle, and the words Rzeczpospolita Polska On the reverse: 20 Groszy. Is it from Poland? Anybody know? Report this Post to the Staff
Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 11/18/2007 02:19 am I got these two bills from Walmart tonight. I know they aren't to pretty on the eyes but this is the first in a long time I have received a bill as old as the $20 bill (1950-B just in case its not large enough to see the date) Report this Post to the Staff
chrycopaul Pillar of the Community Canada 1106 Posts	Posted 11/18/2007 03:49 am Nothing specific, but I was emptying the tray where I keep my change in my minivan and found that most of it is American change. Since the CND dollar went above the US I have been getting lots of US coins in change. Report this Post to the Staff
