The merc dime was sitting in my till underneath some dimes. I wasn't in work for a few days so it must have just sat at the bottom of the dimes.

I get so excited finding good coins :)

I end up opening so much coins they don't give me any until I absolutely need them. So what I do is pay every one in change as much as possible.

27 cents = two dimes and seven pennies!!!!! I can go through 200 pennies in one night. It is kind of a challenge but it increases the fun anyways!!!!

Congrats on the finds.
Kinda like I am always trying to pay in as much change as possible,
Does anyone ever notice or look at there change and give you a funny look or comment or do they just blindly take it?

I personally don't mind a bit,if someone wants to give me lots of change. I have to order it less and I get a chance to look at the "new change". Plus it's good customer service!

My IHP has dropped a LOT since I been reading this forum,lol. But I'm always looking for the "odd" looking coin or bill. As I said before. I like when called up to cashier. Get to hunt the cash drawer!

Mostly people are in a hurry and take it.

99.8 percent of the time no matter how much change there is people just drop it in a cup holder or on the side of the door or just toss it out the window. They only care about the bills.

.01 puts the chang in there pocket
.01 couns the change, yeah you more hippy man in your van!!!!!!

and after 12 most of the people are getting drunk, on the way to get drunker or teenage kids coming from a movies.

I'd like to mark the merc and possibly the wheats off my 2008 tracking list, but I need to know if the date and mintmark in order to cross it off, can you list them please. The IH I can read from the pic.
