Ground Finds

I always pick up change when i see it dropped! the best part of ground finds is when you go to a civil war site and the bullets are on top of the ground after a nice rain!
 

My brother in law once told his daughter " you can have $200.00 cash or the change I have in this milk churn." Being young she took the $200.00. I helped him count the change, she missed out on $ 547.98 !!!!

I went to Walmart one night last year and I found $10 on the ground. No one was around to claim it and it was raining, so I kept it. A few weeks ago I saw a lady drop her wallet and she didn't realize she dropped it and I returned it to her and she gave me $5. I told her to keep it but she insisted. Sunday I found a 1987 quarter on the sidewalk at Walmart. That's about it except for a few cents every once in a while.

I don't find much change in the parking lot anymore. I used to find about 50 cents worth every time. I guess people are more careful with their change now. Happy hunting!
 

Our summer camps are over so the pickings are slim. Only found one cent lately for a year total of 18.91
