I got change for a dollar to buy cigarettes
On the way to the cigarette machine I dropped a quarter.
The instant I heard it hit the concrete floor I knew that quarter was something different
Twas a 1957 quarter.
I still have it after 37 years

Mom has a Silver Dollar from 1820-something she won in Las Vegas years ago. For DECADES she had it in her ‘change purse’ and carried it with her everywhere.

When I found out about it, I looked up the value for her and she put it straight in her safe-deposit box at the bank. :)
