=C2=A0=20 Been a banner day!!!! I was looking for an old photo of a riding stable I u= sed=20 to go to and had to move a box. I opened the thing and remembered what was = in=20 it. I think I told this story before, but about 10-12 years ago, a couple g= ot=20 into the cab late at night and went to the to the city. It was probably 2 o= r=20 3AM, and at the time. I told them the typical line. "I'm sorry, but it's co= mpany=20 policy that all out of town fares have to be paid up front"...the guy said,= no=20 problem, but you're gonna want to shoot me....all I have is change. I said = is it=20 rolled, and he said no, but it's dollars so you can count it, there's a 5 d= ollar=20 tip for you. I took the crinkled up brown paper bag and laid it on the pass= enger=20 seat and took off saying I appreciate that and never checked...it was a bad= =20 night, the dispatcher had given them a big break on the fare because they o= nly=20 had 60 dollars,=C2=A0and the last thing I wanted to see was a bag full of s= usan b=20 anthonys. I cursed the trains for giving them as change, knowing the cab al= ways=20 wound up getting them when people had too many. I paid all the tolls out of= my=20 top pocket with a plan to dump the 60 dollars worth of coins on the dispatc= her=20 at book out. I dropped them off in Lower Manhattan in Little Italy and came= back=20 through the Holland tunnel, got on the pike and turned the radio up. When I= got=20 back there were a couple of airports waiting, so I took them and then gasse= d up=20 and took the car in about 630 to book out. Cleaned the car ou, and grabbed = my=20 maps and all the junk you carry driving a cab and put them into my duffle b= ag=20 and walked in to book out. The dispatcher was apologizing to everyone for t= he=20 slow night, like it was his fault. (Great night, the drivers are all shakin= g=20 hands with the dispatcher like he's their brother who's been off to war for= 4=20 years and they're seeing him at the airport for the first time since he=20 left....bad nights, everyone just growls and throws things around saying th= is=20 place sucks and the dispatcher screwed them...always thought that was funny= =20 about the job) Well to end the story, I looked in the bag, and it was fille= d=20 with silver dollars. I just put them in the duffle bag when I saw it and bo= oked=20 out. Another driver asked if anyone picked up a couple tonite who had paid = in=20 silver dollars because he had=C2=A07 of them. They had taken the train in a= nd the cab=20 from the train was=C2=A05 dollars and they gave him a 2 dollar tip. I didn'= t say a=20 word but asked if he wanted to sell them for melt, He kept them, and I wond= er if=20 he still has them, which I doubt. I remember silver was just about 5 dollar= s an=20 ounce at the time. Figuring the current price of silver at 29.31 and Morgan= and=20 Peace Dollars at .7344 ASW, I have 44.06 oz of silver which comes to just u= nder=20 $1,291 dollars!!! A very nice find and I'm glad I didn't find it a year or = 2=20 back!!! The thing is, these are all decent grades and I just looked and see= =20 there are 40 different date/MM's....nothing really rare, but the 35-s is a = nice=20 unc and there are a few Unc PL's with really nice toning. gonna be a pain=20 photographing....thinking about just building a set and getting rid of the= =20 dupes....will have to figure that one out. I'll post a photo on my group. N= ow I=20 have to figure how much these are selling for. I had just dumped some peace= =20 dollars for a friend and they sold for 22 bucks apiece which I think is a l= ittle=20 low, and I want to avoid ebay and its fees, so will probably just wait for = a=20 coin show and show up, get a table for 5 bucks and sell them there if I do.= ...or=20 just put one up on ebay and say there are 59 more available and give direct= ions=20 to the contemporary counterfeits site or just my personal email. Not sure w= hat=20 ebay puts up with....could also look for yahoo groups dealing in these...mo= st=20 are XF but range from VG to Unc. Will help pay some bills....I never did fi= nd=20 the photo. The heck with it, will post both places....as a human interest s= tory.=20 Nobody ever saw them again...I kept asking the dispatcher if they called...= but=20 no luck.=20=20
