Dollar Coin

Friday was a big first. I found a dollar coin at Papa Gino's. I spied it just under the jukebox while I was sitting down. It's a Jefferson.

I also searched 7,500 pennies (three boxes) while watching the Red Sox on Friday. In them I found one hundred Wheats, sixty Canadians, and one Barbados 1¢.

While dumping my coins on Saturday I came across twenty-eight halves. Nothing too exciting in them, though.

The Wheat breakdown for the last two posts is:

1919, 1930, 1937(2), 1940(2), 1941(2), 1941D, 1942, 1942D, 1944(17), 1944D, 1944S, 1945(8), 1946(6), 1946D(3), 1946S, 1947, 1947D, 1948(3), 1949(2), 1949D, 1950(2), 1951(5), 1951D, 1952(2), 1952D(5), 1953(3), 1953D(8), 1954D, 1955(3), 1956(6), 1956D(5), 1957(3), 1957D(6), 1958(3), 1958D(3)

Lastly, after getting home from a fun family weekend at the Cape I searched 4,000 nickels (two boxes). The boxes produced one War Time (1944P), thirteen Canadians, and one Bermuda.

Found: 3 pennies (2 at Papa Gino's, 1 at The Egg and I), 1 nickel (at Sovereign Bank), 1 quarter (at the The Egg and I), and 1 dollar coin (at Papa Gino's)

You will be most impressed with the stash of coins that one of the tellers at my bank handed me today! Certainly not found change, but a nice start to a quarter collection!
