My two cents worth

[captaindoug]

On Friday I saw that the next city over had dug up a twenty foot section of old sidewalk. First thing this morning I hit it and found one 1996 cent. Oh well stopped at McDonald for a cup of coffee and got a wheat penny in change. Go figure.

last night I was out digging until about 10 and only found 2 cents- and not wheats either... oh and I found a hot wheels plastic nickel.... I should have stayed in and watched TV instead....

Yep, you never know. Went detecting one afternoon and found a few crusty clads, left and went by McDonalds and walked in, placed my order and paid. Got my change and heard that distinct sound of silver in my hand, got a 64 dime.

I thought 1964 was the cut off for silver dimes and quarters...? Did they make silver dimes in 1965..?

You are right, meant to say 64, fat fingers...

It is funny how that can happen; a while back I stopped at Bojangles for a biscuit and found a penny in the parking lot and it was a wheatie from the 50's.
