Interesting thing tonight at a bar.

Sitting at the bar & the women bartender takes money from a customer. I hear her say, "Cool, a silver quarter." After she finishes up
with the register I ask if I can see it. She says, "You better give it back!" and smiles. She hands me a VERY AU 1964 Washington Quarter!
I asked if she collects coins & she told me only silver that she gets from change at the bar. She recognized it from the ring it made on the
counter!

Next time I go there I'm going to give her an AU '64 Kennedy half- just because she was nice enough to show me what she got tonight.

A friend of mine since high school is a silver junkie. Every once in a while when he's working at the far end of the bar, I drop a silver quarter on the bar. His head whips around so fast that it's painful to watch! I usually end up giving him the quarter.

Love the "ping" silver makes!!

... and I thought you were going to offer us one those bar jokes like, a coin collector came into a bar (that's just to keep it on topic) with a toad on the top of his head. The bartender asked where did you get that? The toad answered, "I don't know, it started out as a wart under my leg."

I believe that the term bar came from the metal bar or railing near the floor for

embibers to place one foot on. Just a small rather insignificent factoid.
