I took my family to Star Wars last night, and treated everyone to sodas and popcorn. It came to $21.50 so I gave the young girl behind the counter a twenty and 3 halves. She stared at them and was not sure what to do. Finally another lady came over and explained to her what they were.

$1.50 at movie theater. $99,686.50 remaining. May the Force be with us!

I was a regular participant in the previous thread with the dollar coins and half dollars combined. Now that there are 2 separate threads (a great idea), it made me think. My first thought is that dollar coins are higher in value so they would probably reach 100k faster, but would they? I wondered just what percentage of the first 100k were dollar coins and half dollars. Anyone care to figure this out?

My recent spending of half dollars since my last post:
$1 on trip to Maryland
$7 at the club for drinks and tips
$10 at Wendys
$1 at grocery store
$2 at Subway
$1.50 at Arbys
50 cents at Burger King
$1 at local bakery
---------------------
$24 total

No thanks- I don't feel reading through 316 pages of numbers . If anyone else does it, though,
I salute you.

This is not a challenge, but it would almost be impossible since many times people just reported an amount spent in dollars and half dollars. I was keeping track of Ike$ spent, and I had to send a few messages asking for quantity per coin type.

I'm sure many of the people in the last thread who didn't specify no longer come to CCF and possibly used an alternate email address for this site, so it would be next to impossible to contact them for the info. Anyway, they would have surely forgotten by now.
