Second week, same as the first. Okay. Technically, it's 21st week, same as the 20th. Same number of coins this week as last.
TUESDAY, May 23, I was leaving Orb K when I saw a penny not wanting to bid me adieu.
Not sure what's in the boxes on that pallet, but they've been sitting there for two weeks. I set my just-bought scratchers on them to use both hands for my penny-pictures.
It was a face-down 2012 penny, just waiting to be hoisted into my shirt pocket.

WEDNESDAY, May 24, the Backroads Casey's was the place to be.
The chatty customer who had already completed his transaction bought me time to snap a picture.
It was a face-down 2006 penny, which I snatched up before noticing...
He had a companion on my right, which had been blocked from my sight by the rumpus of the chatty customer. Of course I grabbed it, too. A heads-up 2016, looking like he'd had a rough life. No idea what the colorful debris is next to it on the floor.

THURSDAY, May 25, my errand day proved profitable in the penny business, if not in scratchers. At the School-Turn Casey's, a penny awaited at the cash-only register.
Of course I stepped up. I'm a cash-and-penny kind of Val.
This was a face-down 2020 penny, free for the taking.

ReplyDeleteI didn't watch much Sesame Street, but The Count was my favorite! A surprise to nobody, I'm sure...
DeleteAm I the only one who likes to see how people arrange their footing as they stand waiting in line while you photograph your next coin?
ReplyDeleteI am more interested in their footwear and visible tattoos! You can see how this guy was relaxed, jawing away while I waited.
