    But not in the usual way I find coins (searching rolls, or in change). I was walking through the older part of town, taking pictures, and saw something shiny on the curb. It was a Seated Bust Dime. With where it was located, I'm pretty sure it fell from someone's pocket when they dug out their keys, since it was near a parking spot. No cars around at that time of the morning, so no telling. I'll go by the store on Monday to see if someone has asked for it.

    If you do - just say you found an old dime. If someone can identify the year and type it's theirs. Not likely that anyone ever will as it was probably a pocket piece, and in rough shape, it's not likely that the owner will really go looking for it. They will probably just pick a new pocket piece from their collection.

    Regardless - cool find!

    LOL - Reminds me of a time I stepped right over a $100 outside a bar at night. Fortunately my wife was behind me and spotted it. She asked me in all sincerity if there was any reason I didn't stop and pick it up - she is so funny! She hates keeping found money as she thinks it's unlucky - so I took it. After about an hour, I went and asked the bar tender if anyone was looking for something they lost and he said no. I spent it the next day - lesson - keep your keys in a different pocket than your money - especially if you are at a bar!
