The first man was rather rude. After I exchanged paper for the coins, he laughed and told me to my face that I was an idiot. I phoned my dad for some reassurance. He commented that although the clad halves were going for a premium at the coin shops, that I did not do any thing especially careless. Personally, I took the frenzy as a sign that maybe the coin would be worth more in the future.
