Just saw a guy get paid in $50 octagons on Bonanza

I start my shift at 3:30 on Thursdays and watch Bonaza because nothing else is on. A bounty hunter got his $1000 reward in 2 stacks of $50 octagons, way cool. Now leave me alone while I day dream.

COPS is better before a shift. It gets you in the mood.

Cops is too much like work

Good guy, wait til you've been working 10 years as one and you'll think Cops is as boring as a fishing show. It probably takes 30 hours of taping to come up with 30 minutes worthy of viewing.

Who was dishing out the octagons?? Ben?

Guess it was the Sheriff, I don't know, how could I pay attention to that little detail with two stacks of fiddies in my face

It's funny how we notice this kind of stuff. I was recently watch the movie "The Untouchables." A gangster was asked to empty his pockets. With everythings else he pulls out a well worn SQL.

I agree, I've been watching Gunsmoke lately and several times when someone has paid somebody else they have done a close enough shot to see the coins and they have been seated liberty silver in VG - F. In one episode a dollar was exchanged and it was a VF seated dollar. I don't think they want to give clues as to exactly when the show is set because they always show the reverse of the coins.

Have we all seen the Hawaii Five-O episode with the 1913 V nickel? I think I've seen that a few times, but only once since I realized how special that coin is. I couldn't wait to tell all my friends... (I think they were much less interested than I was!)

Oh, and the Matlock episodes mentions a few times an 1804 dollar.
