I thought I'd get rid of some change at a hotel vending machine this weekend...

and one of my dimes was returned to me three times. Upon inspection, yep, 1964. image

I cannot remember the last time I got a silver coin in change.

Who is John Galt?

    Scratch vending machine investment idea, no silver lining potential there.

    Maybe I am sick but the first thing I do when I get a dime or quarter in change is to turn it on the side to see if its silver.With cents I look for the wheat on the reverse.Darn glasses arent strong enough to see any mint errors on the lincoln cents so its a good thing I dont see these cents in change.image

    I still do the same thing AND....

    I get mildly perturbed when my wife forgets to show me any change she's received over the course of the week for my inspection!!!
