Cash Register drawer finds; something old, something silver, something from San Francisco.

Trying to be careful about what is slipped into circulation, normally rolled coins, something of interest catches even an untrained eye. A coworker noticed an odd fellow in the Nickel portion of the cash drawer late last year;

...I don't recall the common date, but recovered just in time.

Silver has been spotted on occasion;

...and just the other night in the quarter portion;

One of the last circulating San Francisco coins;

Not a whole lot of excitement at an otherwise boring night at the parts counter.

    Ummmm...hope this is not too personal a question for the auto parts store folks --- But, why do you keep your drawers in the cash register?

    They are very nice drawers, so I have been told, and need to be kept somewhat secure.

    Nice finds.....I always wondered about how many old coins are found in cash registers now.... most are likely not even noticed. Cheers, RickO
