The last silver quarter I got in change was maybe 5 years ago. I worked Dominos and a guy came in an paid for an order. I heard the coin when it hit my hand.



The most memorable score was when I was working Pizza Hut and they got a bunch of silver and indian head. There were more in the drawer, but the manager was a B and wouldn't sell the nickels to me... She just gave them out as change. I managed to pick about a dozen or so. That would have been 1990ish....
