just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 12/30/2009 09:58 am Quote: I too find it hard to believe that an 18 year old would not have the common sense as to realize that these were something more then just 25c pieces. Not sure where you live but if you read the Chicago papers you would see that a massive quantity of drive by shootings, home invasions, murders, buisness robberies, rapes, etc are by teenagers. If a teenager was to try selling coins anywhere, it would raise a flag and they know that much so they just dump coins anywhere they can. Spending in any machines are just easier.

specksynder Pillar of the Community United States 1080 Posts	Posted 01/03/2010 1:46 pm Now when you were younger, did you ever spend off things you were trying to keep? In my teens, I spent a set of two consecutive * serial number dollar bills that I had hung onto for about a year. Then before I got married I borrowed a coin from my State Quarter set to feed the laundry machine when I was 1 or 2 quarters short (always choosing recent/low quality quarters to pop out of the album). I do kinda regret the dollars. Report this Post to the Staff
Figman Valued Member United States 245 Posts	Posted 01/03/2010 3:07 pm I grabbed a few handfuls of my brothers Eisenhower dollar collection ( no silver) for dinner and drinks one night about 30 years ago. I remember him howling they could never be replaced until a few days later I made it back to the bank. Come to think of it I thing I spent a bunch of his Susan B's too LOL I don't think inflation helped my brother much ;-) Report this Post to the Staff

specksynder Pillar of the Community United States 1080 Posts	Posted 01/05/2010 8:17 pm I made a find the other week just sitting in the lunchroom... one of the science teachers was complaining the soda machine wouldn't take his quarter because "it's old." He asked if I had a quarter to trade. I did and got his 1962 silver quarter. Report this Post to the Staff
