Someone probably thought it wasn't real. I like to be annoying and use them. I've had more than couple of quizzical looks with one refusal to accept with a threat to call the police. Had I not had stuff to do, I would have stuck around for that for the amusement.
I have never found a half dollar or a dollar coin. Lots of other denominations though.
Several years ago I threw all the coins I found ( in parking lots, coins found while walking, biking, etc. ) into a jar and had $62 for the year.
Not too shabby.
I have found one Sac in a parking lot, and one on the floor of the local market.... I always pick up coins I see, even cents. My wife says "Why don't you leave it for the kids?" I tell her, the kids don't care about cents anymore... no more penny candy available...Cheers, RickO
Parking lot finds of any kind are becoming few and far between. In the past two months my total finds are: 5 cents, 2 dimes, 1 nickel. Considering that I walk 4-5 miles every day that is a very meager amount. I have spotted one more nickel and one more dime but they are so pounded into the pavement that I would need a jackhammer to get them out!
Coinstar machine finds are also becoming very few and far between. In the last two months I have found 1 badly corroded cent and two perfectly good nickels. I can't recall any time when I have found less. The days of 50+ item Coinstar machine finds seem to be over. (I have had six such finds in the past. The largest had 104 items, all US coins, at one time.)

Nice one!
Cool, I thought you were going to tell us that it is the "Cheerios or the Wounded Eagle "?
"Jesus died for you and for me, Thank you,Jesus"!!!

I was assuming it was going to be a space near the main entrance...
One of those Cheerios Sacs with missing feather details. Worth tons. You should slab it immediately.
Nice! 👍

Extremely rare coins should be grasped by the edges.
Smitten with DBLCs.
Probably sitting there for 21 years, nobody like 'em.

Never a slave to one plastic brand will I ever be.
Only if finger prints bother you.

You hardly ever see these out anywhere. So, who dropped it in the parking lot?

They probably thought it was a Chuck E Cheese token.

Do you think that our hosts would grade it as "Parking Lot Find" with environmental damages?
Lol
