It doesn't happen often, but today my wife let me sift through her coin bucket before she rolled a bunch of coins and took them to the bank. She doesn't look at her daily pocket change like I do before she throws it in, so the variety of "stuff" I found was interesting. The pic below has several of the highlights.... a 1943 S wartime nickel, a 1919 Lincoln cent, a ten dollar Jamaican coin, and a 25 cent play token from a local casino, the Riverside Resort. Of course, I also pulled about 25 wheats and 40 or more pre-1960's cents mostly in pretty good shape. And, about a dozen pre-war nickels. I wish I knew where she gets her change because I rarely find anything like that in mine. Guy~
Wow, thats a lot of keepers for a change jar. My wife seems to be a wheat cent magnet as well. Either that or she gets them from my bags then gives them back in her " change" just to mess with me.
Lol when my brother lets me look through his change I always find a few silver dimes or quarters and a lot of wheats but in my own change i never even get a single wheat
