Ground Finds

Found two quarters today, Year to date 16.10
 

I am so glad I found this thread. So a few days back my girlfriend and I were cruising around on our road bikes and I said "I bet if we go into that parking lot we could find some change." Sure enough we found and dime.... We spent the next hour and a half doing just that and finding a little over a dollar. When you are circling parking lots on a bike you feel a bit like a vulture, it is pretty fun... we have deemed it "Urban Savaging". So enjoy and today I found 45 cents in the drink machine at my work. Over the past two months I have found 2 gold rings in the street though. So Gl Hf!
 

Found another quarter in the parking lot... It all went to pay for doing laundry :(
 

found two quarters in the pop machines today. year total 16.60
 

Found one cent in a parking lot today. Normally I wouldn't waste a post for one cent but this one was a well circulated 1926 no mint mark cent. I stopped walking while wondering where this little guy had been all these past years. Remembering it had little to no value I put it back into circulation in the store I was entering. Even watched to make sure the cashier put it into the register. So, it's off again in it's travels. Just hope it doesn't end up in somebodies penny jar. YTD$7.68

I found these on vacation at Virginia Beach, which makes it stranger that I found a Canadian cent on the ground. It was on the street too, so it's the first foreign found on the street since at least a year (the other foreign this year were under Coinstar machines).
