Yesterday, on my way to my mom‘s house I found some coins on the ground. Closer to where I live I found a dime. And then as I was walking toward her house, I found what look like a penny. I picked it up and after examining it, it turned out to be a foreign coin. It was a coin from Uruguay. I’ve never found a coin from this country before.

@lovebuglena Looks like it finally worked. Sometimes my pix will post; but most of the time they do not. They are working on it.

Weird. And I mean that literally. Because last week I received a Canadian nickel in change and found a dime and a penny by the gas pump at Moto when I went to gas up. I'm not kidding. This really happened. lol Incidentally, I also received a series 1993 $20 bill in the old style from the ATM. I kept it. It's not worth more than $20, but I kept it anyway.

Wow! That’s cool! I found another dime today. It was at a bus stop.

@porwest One time when I was in Brooklyn, waiting for hubby to finish work so he can pick me up, I had time to kill so I decided to wonder the streets looking for coins. Ended up finding nothing.

I don't think I've ever seen a coin from Uruguay either. Learning something new.
