<p>[QUOTE="AdamL, post: 200944, member: 6029"]Tongiht I went to spend a Kennedy half at the store where I'm a regular. The older lady wasn't in, so I dealt with a girl around my age (early 20's) She was mopping the floor, saw the item I was buying was 85 cents, and knows that I usually pay in exact change. She said "85 cents" saw that I pulled out some change and said " cool. I don't have to stop mopping." I put the money (one Kennedy, 3 Roosevelts, and one Jefferson) on the counter. I said, "I'm using a half dollar. Bet you don't see many of those". She gave it a crazy look, and said "aren't those worth money?". I said " Only certain dates. And I have plenty of them anyway. Have a good night!" I think her jaw was still dropped when I exited the store. Its strange how people don't know anything about money that is still legal tender, and still produced by the mint.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
