One of the side effects of the current economic situation is - old coins.
Not collectible coins, just old coins. Lately when I've examined a miscellaneous handful of change, I've found coins with dates from way back. So far the star of the collection is a 1910 Lincoln penny, in well-circulated condition.
I think these coins are coming from cigar boxes and piggy banks and jars in the back of drawers and all the other places change accumulates. As a bit of a coin hoarder myself, I know what an eye-popping Coinstar total slip looks like.
"Every little bit helps, as the old lady said when..."
Never mind. It was one of my father's quips.
