<p>[QUOTE="Mountain Man, post: 3496475, member: 94733"]I don't get to town very often, especially when I still have over three feet of snow on the ground, but I made the effort to go to town (Helena, MT) yesterday and release 24 "steel" cents, 12 wheat back, various years, 4 Buffalo nickels with readable dates, and 2 Liberty nickels, also readable dates. Some I spent but many I gave to people that I've regularly done business with, explaining what this week was so they will keep an eye out for collectables. Three of them said they were going to keep the coins I gave them and start collecting, so I felt good about simply giving them away. One said she was going to get her grandson an album and give him the coins, save one 1943 steel cent that she has looked for over the years. She said I made her day!</p><p>I hope that members here will report on their give away/spent and if they discover any coins or currency in the wild.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
