Have you seen what passes for a 65 these days?
Ah...is there a coin in this joke?
We are heading into de basement.
The Mysterious Egyptian Magic Coin
Coins in Movies
Coins on Television
Two Martians spot the Curiosity rover. One sees the 1909 VDB cent that is used for calibration. He picks it up and carefully examines both sides. Disinterested, he tosses the coin to the ground.
As they walk away he tells his friend "I need the one with the S."
What is it called when it rains pennies?
Answer: Climate change
Does anyone around here remember Brooks Robinson? He is regarded as the greatest defensive third baseman in baseball history. He played for the Baltimore Orioles. His nickname was Mr. Hoover. As in VACUUM CLEANER! He was featured in an article in Sport magazine that I read sometime in the 1960's. I'll never forget it. In the article he mentioned that one of his children had swallowed some coins. The child was taken to the doctor. The doctor's advise; look through the kid's stool until you find the coins. I never understood the logic behind that but here's the joke............
Brooks Robinson's kid swallowed some coins. The doctor tells Mrs. Robinson to look for the coins in the child's stool. One day passes. No coins found. Two days pass, still no coins. On the third day Brooks gets home from the game and asks his wife about the child's condition. Her reply, "No change."

A thief, a liar, and a cheat walk into the bar and take a stool. The bartender asks : " so what is my favorite coin dealer having ? "
(Okay, I just made that up, but it could happen ).
I've seen variations of this joke with "lawyer", "congressman", among others in place of "coin dealer".

How do you make a million dollars in the coin business?
Work a million hours.
What turns problem coins into great coins?
The 200 year old safe.
The Robinson joke is a variation of what I tell pediatricians on abdominal x-rays on kids.
If they've swallowed a coin or 2, after it passes, I tell them "No change", meaning the coins have passed and are no longer in the patient. Same inference in the joke - no "change" in the stool.
My dad's name was John so he liked to tell little Johnny jokes like this one: (typical dad joke) Little Johnny's teacher asked him one day; "Little Johnny if you had a quarter in one of your pockets and a nickel in the other, what would you have?"
Little Johnny says: "Well that's easy, I'd for sure have somebody else's pant on!"
A penny for your thoughts and a nickel for that dime.
How long does it take to soak 1911 penny in acetone to remove enough grease build up to consider it ready to holder? Nobody Nose

Did anyone watch closely at the coin toss in the Super Bowl game last February? They used a coin that had a bust of Teddy Roosevelt on one side, and Nathan Hale on the other.
This way, when they tossed the coin, the player would have to call Ted’s or Hale’s 😂

Why did the football coach go to the bank?
To get his quarter back.
He who knows he has enough is rich.
Q: Why did the coin cross the street?
A: To get dropped, run over, and posted here.
Two good old boys were in the 2 seater outhouse doing their business, Elmer says, "oh no!"

"Dropped a quarter diwn in the pit!, see it there on top" exclaimed Elmer, pointing 7 feet below

Rufus without hesitation drops the big yellow coin right into the sewage pit.
Elmer jumps up and shouts, "what n da hell ya do dat fo'??"
Says Rufus, "Ya don't expect me to climb down there for a friggin quarter, do ya!?!"

A guy wanders into an antique shop to look around.....He's picking up various things and admiring them. So he comes across a small bronze statue of a rat. There's something about it that he can't resist, so he negotiates an agreeable price. He soon leaves the store proudly admiring his new purchase. As he walking through town. all of a sudden, he sees a rat crawl out of a sewer and start following him. Then a rat comes out of an alley, also starts following him. He starts to get a bit anxious.
Soon, a rat crawls out of a dumpster, joins the pursuit. Another couple come up out of a sewer, then a few more, then more.....and more......
The guy finds himself at the edge of town, at the river, being followed by hundreds of rats. Really scared now, he throws his prized statue into the river. One by one, every one of the rats jumps into the river and drowns......
Somewhat relieved, the guy heads back to that little antique shop. The owner inquires, "What happened to your rat statue"? "Oh, that's gone", he says, "but not a problem"......
"I was just wondering if you had one in the shape of a coin dealer" ?
An old man walks into a bar and slams a bag of gold coins down,
addresses the customers by saying, "I'll give this entire bag of coins to any man here able to drink 10 pints in 2 minutes'"
Nobody takes him up on the offer but he notices an Irishman getting up and leaving.
A few minutes later the Irishman is back and says to him, "Is yer wager still applicable"
The old man tells him it is and the bartender sets 10 pints of ale on the bar.
In a minute and a half flat the Irishman is done and the old man hands him the bag of money.
"Just one thing sir", the Old man says, " I noticed you leaving the pub earlier when I introduced my proposal".
"Aye ye did ser," says the Irishman, "I went next door to see if I could do it first".
Cheers, RickO

In a train compartment, there are 3 men and a young woman. The four passengers join in conversation, which very soon turns to the erotic. Then, the young woman proposes, "If each of you will give me a quarter, I will show you my legs." The men, charmed by this young college girl, all pull a quarter out of their pocket. And then the girl pulls up her dress a bit to show her legs. Then she says, "If each of you gentlemen will give me a half dollar, I'll show you my thighs,". And men being what they are, they all pull out a half dollar. The girl pulls up her dress all the way to her legs in full. Conversation continues, and the men, a bit excited, have all taken off their coats. Then the young girl says, "If you will give me a silver dollar, I will show you where I was operated on for appendicitis." All three fork over the money. The girl then turned to the window and points outside at a building they're passing. "See there in the distance. That's the hospital where I had it done!"

Repeat from last time. A guy called his girlfriend a two bit tramp and she hit him with a bag of quarters.
What do you call a guy walking down the bourse with a RedBook??
--- a sucker.
Somebody telling me their rip off offer / scam sell or racket is “what the market” is going with (dictates).
I see my contribution (young woman who collected a quarter from "everyone") has been removed. I didn't think it was that risque but apparently it was beyond the level acceptability. My apologies!
Smitten with DBLCs.
That Morgan is at least two grades under graded.
I spent most of my money on gambling, booze and coins, the rest I just wasted.
Q: Two coins add up to 30 cents, and one is not a nickel. What are they?
A: A quarter and a nickel. The quarter isn't a nickel.
I was going to guess a dime and a twenty cent piece.

So this young streetwalker walks into a bank and she's dragging a 50 pound bag of quarters behind her and she plops them up on the counter of the tellers cage and say she wants to deposit them into her account, so the teller starts counting them and making small talk throughout the transaction and says "my my you sure have hoarded a lot quarters" and she say's "well to be truthful my sister helped whored some too"

My mom, a lovely refined lady of 84 years old, told me this, though her punch line used a lawyer, but it zinged with a word I never before in my entire life had heard her previously utter.
A lovely refined lady (no higher praise, of course) in her child-bearing years visits a doctor for a pelvic exam in anticipation of her third marriage.
Having re-robed, she joins him in his office, and he expresses some confusion.
"Madam", he says," I found you quite healthy, but my examination contradicts the medical history you gave me. I understood you to tell me you were marrying for the third time, yet I found you intact, a virgin. This cannot be"
"Doctor" she replies "it most certainly can, and is, and is actually quite simple to explain".
"But....."
"Please.
As I said, it's quite simple.
My first husband, like you, was a gynecologist, and all he wanted to do was look at it.
And my second husband was a psychiatrist, and frankly, all he wanted to do was talk about it.
But now, I'm going to be marrying a coin dealer, and I know I'm going to get f@@ked"
POOF!
Yah, enjoy it while you can.
UnPC, it's not that we're offended, as much as we're offended on behalf of the victims in this little tale.. those sensitive coin dealers 😉

Just noting the Second Amendment implications of the Aristotle-attributed quote by @abcde12345 above. I expect Wayne LaPierre to weaponize it without grasping the intended sarcasm.
Presidential dollars. They aren't my favorite but they're still a joke.
The fact that the U.S. mint makes Lincoln penny’s for the price of more than what they are worth Makes No Cents
