Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

The cold weather is here to stay...

On December 6th, I went to Tops to get a few things. At the check out I spotted a penny on the floor. It was kind of beat up, but could see the date is a 1982. Later I will be weighing the 82's to find the ones that have more copper.
December 8th, we went to Walmart as I was walking to the entrance I checked the outside soda machine coin return, in one I saw a quarter, so I grabbed it :-)
December 9th, went to Tops while there got two winning Lottery tickets. I went in the cash them in, while I walked past the Coinstar machine found a coin in the return slot (was a Canadian penny).

Lucky pocket change find...

Everyday I check my change to pull out the pre 82's in the pennies, once in awhile my husband gives me his change to check the dates. Today is a Lucky one, found this 1942 silver quarter.
