<p>[QUOTE="PaulyWally, post: 1627739, member: 44190"]Being that I work in retail, I stumble across some coins worth taking at usually every shift.

Although I seem to find the majority. </p><p><br /></p><p>I have compiled a decent coin collection from what I have found in circulation. A couple thousand wheat pennies from the past several years, some older Jefferson and buffalo nickels, about 20 Silver dimes ranging 1912, 1935-1964, and a handful of silver quarters... 1938-1964. Some halves here and there, some Canadian coins too. I also have some bills that are 1934-1969 series. My dad found an EXCELLENT condition 1877 CC quarter in the farm field behind my house when they were overturning dirt. By far my favorite coin I have.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>So I keep all the coins I find for the month in one cup and at the end of the month, I go through and take a second look at what I found before it gets stashed away in the fireproof box where they just sit. </p><p><br /></p><p>For the month of January 2013, these are my finds.
