CENTsational! I Got One!

Finally, Val's Future Pennyillionaire Fortune drought has broken! THURSDAY, February 11,      I T-Hoed the treacherous roads for my weekly errands. Over in Sis-Town for bank and post office and gas, I mined my first copper in 14 days!

 

Funny I should mention "copper." I had to bide my time. I spied my rightful penny as I bellied up to the counter, but it was instantaneously obscured by the black boot of A CITY POLICEMAN! I dummied-up. Looked neither left nor right. Just did my business, trying to sneak a side-eye without moving my head. After some small talk about a new flavor of snack with the female clerks who were falling all over themselves to flatter him, Sis-Town's Finest paid for his purchase, and released my Lincoln.

 

It was a face-down 1993 penny. I know that, because the paint was on his tail when I examined my Lincoln more closely. Sorry for the not-very close-up. The clerks were watching me like I was doing something suspicious. I didn't want them to call their buddy back inside. You never know when there might be an APB out for a suspicious ample-rumpuser.
