I got a Silver Quarter as change for the gas station on money. I haven't receive on in change in probably 20 years.

When I came home from Ft. Ord in 1988 and started school @ UGA, I also got a job at a package store on the edge of the hood. We regularly got Silver Certificates, red and blue sealed bills, and silver coins to pay for cheap booze. I always wondered where they came from as I cashed them out from the register to my pocket. :cool:
 
I get rolls of half dollars from the bank to search thru, lucky if I get one "keeper" out of $500 face value...1000 coins. But then I use them everyday for drive-in purchases, tips in restaurants, etc.

My "bill" at Dunkin Donuts this AM was $14.51, gave the kid at the window a $20 bill, 50 cent piece and a penny. He was dumbfounded, had to call his manager over, who told him it was OK, give me $6 change back. You would have thought I gave him Klingon money.
