I found a completely flattened *circular* Lincoln cent in a return tray a couple months ago. This was not one of those novelty flattened pennies, it was still circular.

I have been shut-out so far in 2011 (other than just 95% coppers), but it changed tonight. I got a 50 Euro cent coin in place of a quarter at a Marathon station. It looks nothing like a quarter and is not even the right size, yet apparently neither I nor the clerk noticed, haha. I found it later in the night for a nice 100%+ profit :)

I got a 1983 quarter Balboa from Panama from the change dispenser at Subway. Must be exact size/weight as our quarter. It's CuNi but I still thought it was pretty cool! Panama is a LONG way from Western NY :)

Waitress gave me a proof silver California quarter the other day. I told her what it was and suggested she save it...she said it was ok, she didn't collect coins :?
