Oh and I almost got a 200 Shilingi from Tanzania (1998), but she wouldn't sell it to me since it was foreign.

The teller picked it out when she recounted the half dollar bag for accuracy. :P Though I didn't mind the 10 Car wash tokens she picked out (too bad she forgot 1).

Oh well, not worth much but coins from Africa are generally hard to come by.

Not bad. I'm gonna start hitting small towns soon, I'll be doing quite a bit of traveling within my state in the next month.

Pretty good, but doesn't come close to my last small town road trip a couple of weeks ago (early Feb). One stop had 68 - 90% and 107 - 40% out of $211 dollars.

Was hoping for a repeat.

Though it did push my silver half total over 300 for the year.
