WB2- a buck for that Swami token was a pretty nice pickup! I know for a fact that mine spent some time in the ground, because I dug it at one of...
Indeed- a very nice Conder.
OK, forget the lotto tickets. Sorry. I might add another numismatic prize or two later.

Technically that would be pennies and halfpennies, to be semantically correct (if annoyingly nitpicky). Cents are a decimal coinage (1/100 units)...
