The mexian 50 cent peice passed up... autozone.

I went today to get a couple things from autozone, and I saw a brass looking coin sitting next to the register. I picked it up and told the employee, "What's this? I collect coins". He responded with, "It's a 50 peso's coin... You want it?". No doubt my comment of 'I collect coins' made him offer the piece to me. I responded with, "No thanks". He agreed with a grin that matched my own grin. It was garbage. I thought about telling him about how people often pay with silver coins,etc., but I figured... no, this is a credit card business. And I left it at that.
