Found a dime

I was walking home this week and found a dime on the ground. I wasn’t even sure that it was a dime at first. I bent down to pick it up. It looked rather beat up but I picked it up anyway. Even though it wasn’t in good condition it’s still valid money. I put it in the coin wrapper and I’m going to deposit it in the bank once the wrapper fills up to five dollars worth of dimes.

Makes sense to me. I rarely deal with cash these days, though.

I prefer to use a card when paying for stuff.

I still pick up change off the ground, too. Nothing wrong with that.

@TheHorse I pick those up, too. Once in a great while, I dump all my change into a Ziploc bag and take it to the bank with a deposit slip.

I do too. Unless it's a penny. Then I just turn it heads up for those who believe in luck.

I always pick up any money I see. It's all worth something.

I don’t always pick up a penny but higher coins I never leave.

@Ineeddentures I’ve never found a $10 bill before.

@lovebuglena Pity it couldn't have been $10 though.
