Back in the late 80's early 90's i used to help out at the corner beverage store. I loved it. The guy who owned it loved to get the time off. I really enjoyed the customers and selling beer. Most of all I loved running the register. It was fun to look through all the change. Hard to beleive but even then there was still a lot of neat stuff to pick out of circulation, if you kept an eye out for it. I dont think two weeks ever went by without finding something. At least a wheatie. I remember opening a roll of nickels and two buffaloes came out. Quite a few silver roosies were caught by my eyes (over the course of time). One silver candian quarter. A few war nickels. Thats all i can remember for sure and i dont want to speculate. (maybe more neat things) Anyhow it was always fun. One day this big burly man (40, 50-ish?) walked up to the counter with a 6-pack. Rang up $4.15. The next part is still a blur but the guy says "YOU have to ACCEPT these THESE say UNITED STATES OF AMERICA ONE DOLLAR" and whips out four silver dollars (two morgans and two peace) and throws them on the counter (along with 15 clad cents)......i think i just barely nodded and said.....yeah...and before i could really think about what happened the guy was gone with his beer.
