So while dumping today I ran into an old lady picking up a bunch of generic coins and I noticed a few clad Ikes. You could see that she just finished dumping and that she tried hard to feed them into the Cummins, So, finally thinking quickly I offered to buy them off of her. I broke the ice by pulling an Ike out of my pocket and telling her my daughter and I spend them around town, which is true. Well as it happens I could see that she had a few foreign coins so I offered my full $5 for the 4 Ikes and 2 odd ball coins. She tossed them over and I stuck the in my pocket and she thanked me. After I dumped my halves and got to the car I pulled out the coins to check the Ike's and I heard the "ring"... Looking at the other coins I saw a 1-peso(1959)
and a 5-peso(1859-1959)
... Now that is what you get for being helpful to an old lady.
