Keep your eyes open!!

Today at work I found a shiny 1940 wheatie in my cash drawer!! No obvious wear what so ever. the only blemish is a dark spot smaller than a bb on the back side. I would not have given it a second look but noticed the wheat. Finds can be made here in the snowy northeast if you keep your eyes open!!

No fair finding wheaties without having to dig them up out of two or three hundred pull tabs. Spotz

about 20 rosies and 3 buffalos , 4 mercs , about 7 or 8 silver quaters , 4 war nickles, 3 kennedy half silvers one franklin half silver
and one time someone almost bought a 24 oz beer with a morgan dollar but his friend found a 1 dollar bill in his pocket instead , friend should have waited in the car hahaha

Man, I wished they'd do that to my cash drawer. HH inside and outside both.

I remember years ago when I lived in NH and worked at Friendly's (ice cream store, for those of you not in the East), the old ladies would come in and lots of times would leave older coins in their tips. Sigh... if only I knew better I'd have saved some of them.

Good find, pray for sunshine!

I was in St. Augustine one night at a Winn Dixie and this Weird guy wearing a trench coat and top hat ahead of me in line paid for his case of beer with a small stack of morgans! the cashier was happy to let me buy them as he had no place for them in the drawer! what a lucky day! weird creepy but lucky (guy reminded me of the villian off "something wicked this way comes") 8)

Makes you wonder if the guy is so much an alcoholic he raiding his coin collection for money or whether his day job is house burglary?!
