Default Isn't it amazing!

Just how much a little pocket change can mean to us MD'ers! Plus we get more excited if it was dropped a long time ago when it meant more to the person losing it. Just think modern clad nowadays won't buy anything hardly. Many years ago a nickle or dime could feed a family.

Yup, kids won't even pick a penny up off the ground these days.
I think they are seeding one park I hunt, just to see me go after them

That makes me remember to back when I was in 5th grade(I'm 28 now), a couple of trouble makers would roll pennies onto the court to watch one of the older gym teachers chase it down...even then I thought that was cruel and unnecessary...I do even more so now because I'm *kind of* like that old man
...but if they only knew...

First time in my life I ever spent over $600 to find pocket change! Gotta love it.

Even a clad cent is more money than I had a moment before!
