<p>[QUOTE="JPeace$, post: 2124721, member: 42727"]When I was 16, I worked 6 months at a McDonald's. It was locally owned. The dude had 8 of them in the Chicago area. We were trained by the McD's book. All dollars needed to face the same way when put in the drawers. That little bit of OCD has stuck with me ever since.</p><p><br /></p><p>BTW, the other week, I dropped by the Mc D's drive through. The price was $6.82 or something like that. I looked in my coin cup for 2 pennies. One of them looked darker than the other, like it was pre-zinc copper plating days. I looked at it and determined, based on my limited knowledge, that it was nothing. I gave the change and bills to the female cashier. She took THE VERY same penny (cent, whatever) and looked at it just like I did. I called her on it. She said she was a nerd and into coins, so of course I told her I collected as well and we got a little chuckle over it. She was in her early twenties. I was pleased to see a YN practicing the craft of numismatics in the field![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
