After I received the 1942 Washington in change at the gas station this afternoon, I asked
the attendant if he had any more like that . . . he said sure, do you want them?
I worked retail for a long time through high school and some college, and I never saw anything like that. Of course, I didn't run a register, but I told the girls to keep their eyes open...I ended up only with coins that looked different from today's circulated coins (i.e. buffalos, etc). GREAT scores!
