    Yesterday I acquired $300.00 of halves, at a small bank, away from home. Just finished them. I found 1 1964, 1 1968D, and 1 1969d. So, you never know what you will find. Then, I will spend them, when I'm out, and the fun begins. I have done this for several years. The best time, is when I spend them on vacations. People in different areas are fun to watch who have never seen them.:hail:

    During my Spring Break I took five two dollar bills to Disney world and spent them at three shops. One person tried to hold them up to the light :confused:

    I like to give dollar coins as gifts but usually don't spend them per se.

    As for halves, I spend the ones with lots of dings, scratches, and wear, and keep the shiny and smooth ones.

    I enjoy spending the dollar coins, but people look much more strangely at Kennedy's.

    I like to go pull a couple full date Buffs out and spend them watching the cashier as I'm passing by the window. I like to pick and older lady as she sees them and instantly zooms in on them. I figure they end up in a young grandchilds box may be someday the start of a collection.:D
