OT - A true story...about a Morgan silver dollar...

Was in a pharmacy yesterday and at the checkout counter
the total of the purchases was $57.25.

I handed the young lady behind the register three $20
bills and 25 cents in change.

She handed me my change. It was two one dollar bills
and one of those one dollar coins that looks like a
quarter.

There was no one behind me, I had time for a little
"fun". I laid the dollar coin on the counter, reached
in my pocket and removed a worn Morgan silver dollar
that I sometimes carry for "good luck", laid it down.

When the young lady saw the Morgan she picked it up.
"What is this ?" I told her, "A real dollar, one of
silver".

She said, "I've never seen a REAL dollar."

Made my day...
