As a kid, I used to go thru our family's spare change, looking for those coins publicized as "Rare quarter brings $100,000", etc.

Years ago there was an entertainer in Las Vegas (can't remember who...somebody like Jack Jones) who used to ask for his pay to be in silver dollars; he'd go thru 'em one by one and keep the nuggets aside as an added kicker.

Ah, the old days of silver dollars. My granddad had a few, they were beautiful things. Haven't held one in ages.
