TSOTL Valued Member United States 439 Posts	Posted 02/08/2015 12:06 am I gotta admit I love these copper rounds, they're cheap, big and shiny and they seem to impress anyone you show them to, outside of numismatics anyway. I can't seem to help grabbing some when I find them so they seem to be everywhere so lately I've been including them in tips at restaurants. If you're interested in getting a great reaction from the wait staff at a restaurant throw one of those on the table with the tip. I swear, you could drop a 1913 Liberty nickel on the table and they probably wouldn't even notice but a copper round gets them cranked up every time. Report this Post to the Staff
