This week was Val's silver anniversary. Not Val and Hick. Val and her current Future Pennyillionaire Fortune's third week of finding SILVER COINS!
Wednesday, May 11, I made an unscheduled stop at Orb K for scratchers. The plan was to get them at Casey's, but the parking situation was not conducive to T-Hoe's extra-large door having free rein to allow Val's knees to bend minimally upon egress and ingress. So Orb K it was, the last chance on the way home.
I knew right away this wasn't an ordinary penny!
It was a heads-up 2018 DIME! I guess I was meant to stop at Orb K instead of Casey's.

THURSDAY, May 12, was errand day. I guess my old alma mater let out about 20 minutes early, perhaps it was their last day of school. Or the last day for seniors. Because the Sis-Town Casey's was packed with people, some of them a bit short in the tooth. I nabbed the last available gas pump for T-Hoe, and went in to pre-pay.
I was not being a creeper when I snapped this photo. That's a loose coin, by cracky! I can't speak for the looseness of the woman.
It was a 2005 DIME, upside-down, heads-up. Because of the Short-Toothers with no sense of personal space so close behind me, I had to turn sideways, lest I bump them with my ample rumpus as I bent over to pick it up.
From there I went to the bank, then the main post office to mail Genius's weekly letter, and on to Country Mart for their lottery machine.
On the way back to T-Hoe, way down at the end of the parking spaces, I barely spied a penny waiting for me!
There it is, on the concrete to the left of the yellow parking pole. Gotta look close at that little chameleon!
It was a face-down 1990 penny. Of course I stopped to pick it up! Why else was it in my path?

At this rate you'll be an "-illionaire" sooner than if you only found pennies.
ReplyDeleteYeah, that's about a month's worth of pennies in one week!
DeleteAll those dimes...is that because of inflation?
ReplyDeleteLast I read, inflation is slightly over 10 percent. So I might need to start finding 11-cent coins!
