No QuarterI was doing laundry the other day and I had a roll of quarters out. I always get a couple of rolls of quarters to make sure I have plenty for laundry. And, as I always do, I was looking at each quarter. I’m curious as to what state it might represent since all 50 states have unique designs. This time, I pulled something out that wasn’t a quarter and was quite shocked.
Now, I worked retail and I was used to opening rolls of coins. Even in Texas, you occasionally find a Canadian penny or a Wheat Penny in a roll of pennies. Sometimes, you even find an old nickel or a quarter that looks like a slug. So, when I felt the quarter and it was wrong, I assumed it was one of those. How odd that I’d pull out a fairly new 10 pence piece, then huh? I would just think it was strange, but how often do I talk about moving to the UK? |
