That's pretty neat. If I saw one for sale I might be willing to spend a few clams for it.

You can't have a Pismo Beach Clamshell without Bugs Bunny. BTW, I've eaten at Splash in Pismo, it's awesome.

They typically sell for several hundred dollars when they come to auction.

Went to college just up the road from Pismo Beach. That's pretty neat.

We used to go clamming at Pismo beach every year when I was a kid. Thanks for posting this. Those are pretty cool!

I have been clamming at Pismo beach... they are great with scrambled eggs in the morning. I had not seen the scrip shells before.... interesting. Cheers, RickO

Dick Doty enjoyed studying this type of currency. He included one
in his book America's Money, America's Story.
