The Slice

Silver money

When was the last time you got a pre-1964 silver quarter in change?

For me, it was about 10 years ago. It was at the Albertson's at 37th and Grand. Both the cashier and I noticed the distinctive thunk it made as it landed on other coins she had already dropped into my hand.

I still have it, along with a few other old-style quarters. Should have hoarded those when I was a little kid.

Wonder if I'll ever encounter another. Maybe not.
