Got wild silver in change yesterday

I got change in a fast-food drive-thru and looked down to see a 1961-D Roosie! I did a little happy dance when I saw it! This is the first wild silver I've found in forever when I haven't been sorting boxes or bags of coins.

Awesome pick up through the drive-thru!

Great find! I snagged a few silver quarters from a fast food joint last year. It's a great feeling to get silver when you least expect it.

Nice find! I was just with a friend at the local movie theater last week, and he was given a 1961 quarter in change.
