So I got a job at McDonalds and this is my first job. Today was my first day. I was there for 4 hours and after I clocked out I was walking out to my truck when I saw a coin laying a few feet from the drive through window. I walked over and picked it up and it was a Franklin half. Its my first Franklin half and my first coin with silver in it. What a great first day.
Nice! At a minimum $13 melt value, think of it as a bonus hour or two of pay. It wasn't embarrassing enough groping around the reject slots of CoinStar machines, now I've gotta start scoping out the ground under drive-through windows...!
thanks everyone, it was pretty awesome. I didnt even mention the five quarters and a few nickels I found sweeping the parking lot. And to the person who asked what year it was it was a 1957. Pretty good condition for a coin that was laying in a drive through. Id take a picture but no camera atm. EDIT: Wow, I looked at your avatar Zach24 and its the same date lol
Great find! Since it's your first Franklin; look just above the bell on the reverse, there might be a mint mark.
