I dont post very often but I thought today was an exception. My daughter and I spend many hours hunting, coin roll hunting, ect.. Today she called me from school and at lunch in her change she said was a 1899 nickel. At first I was like ya right ok lol. Then she said she was serious so I got excited for 2 reasons. 1, that she actually did get the coin. Second that I trained her or she watched me enough to see that I always check my change and it looks like she does too. Im happy all the way around on this one and very proud of her also.

You must have an exceptional daughter. Most would have dropped it in their pocket, while
wondering if they'd have enough for a soda after school. :laughing9:

Come to think of it, most adults would have done basically the same thing. :laughing7: :laughing7:
Congratulations to you and your daughter!!

Someone dipped their hand into daddy's collection for milk money!

Good eye on that one!
