My wifes change cup...

[tedandcam]

I was looking for some scotch tape today and found a Steak n Shake cup about half full with change in it. It had a zip lock with maybe $6 in nickels. I figured I'd look through it later on. I looked in the zip lock first and couldn' t believe it when I found 4 war nickels AND a 1939d nickel in it. None of the nickels were newer than 1999. 14 of the coins were pre-war and 20 of them were pre 1960. Makes me wish I started this hobby in 2000. The only other thing I found was a nice 1926 wheat pennt and 40% of the pennies were copper. Later on I'm gonna ask her if she has anymore change cups around the house

I'm always caught going through people's coin cups. Then the long explanation starts.

I've been through $2K in nickels and still haven't completed a wild find album.

Do you get invited back to the places where you go through the change cups!?

Not a bad idea if the change cup owners aren't upset at you. Hope you find lots of 'goodies'!

I usually don't get invited back, and it's mostly friends and friends of friends' coin cups I look through. Most of them tell me to take the nickels/pennies
