<p>[QUOTE="Blasty, post: 7348480, member: 38375"]I kid you not, I was in the grocery store this morning and spotted something yellow in the Coinstar reject tray on my way out. I pulled out not one, but TWO big, old-looking coins, no joke! Like the size of a silver dollar, almost. I think they were brass or something, but really heavy so I'm not sure. I've never seen anything like it. They had a lady holding a torch on the front, and a flying eagle on the back. I think they were both 1933. Well, they said TWENTY DOLLARS on the back, so I was really stoked! $40 for FREE! I went back and picked out two cases of good beer, and passed off the old coins at the register. The lady kind of hesitated but took them anyway. I'm surprised because they were so old I didn't know if they were still legal to spend, but whatever. What a great day![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
