    That's about the extent of my rare coin collection.
    Rather impressive. I'll give you a nickle for it.

    And traded them to Lou
    For three dimes -- I guess he don't know
    That three is more than two!

    Just then, along came old blind Bates
    And just 'cause he can't see
    He gave me four nickels for my three dimes,
    And four is more than three!

    And I took the nickels to Hiram Coombs
    Down at the seed-feed store,
    And the fool gave me five pennies for them,
    And five is more than four!

    And then I went and showed my dad,
    And he got red in the cheeks
    And closed his eyes and shook his head--
    Too proud of me to speak!
    My coworker and I started a contest to see who has the oldest quarter. My best was a 1968 to his 1966. I just bought a soda and received a 1965 quarter in the change. I'm now in the lead!
