A late night trip to the neighborhood convenience store.

Was behind two mid-20's ish young ladies at the local gas station tonight.

They were purchasing some coffee energy drink type stuff in cans. They made a partial payment with (5) bags of what they represented as $1 each in cents. Clerk took them w/o question. After they had exited I offered to purchase the bags which made the clerk happy.

Counts on the bags were as follows -- 90, 101, 102, 100 and 90. Short by 17 coins total. No big deal. Can't even determine if it was intentional, but sort of a neat social type experiment re honesty.

Found two wheats, an oldie (1925) and a 1944. One Canadian copper (1982). And finally of all things, two Denver mint set tokens.
