You never know what you might find in a Pennies for Heaven box...

Posted in General

As I mentioned a while back, the AIM Branson SALTeam is coordinating an outreach to Branson's visitors called Pennies for Heaven. Right now we're collecting money for this project through donation boxes set up throughout the community, and each of us is responsible for checking a box or two. Well, about a week ago, I went to check the box at Golden Corrall, and look what I found!

Admittedly, this isn't the exact coin. I went online and found a picture of it, and was too lazy to actually take my own. But this is it: a French two-franc coin from (you ready?) 1922! Pretty cool, huh? Mom says she wants it for her foreign coins collection, but I'm keeping it for mine. I looked it up, and it's not worth anything - about $2 - but I think it's pretty darn cool anyway!

That is such a cool coin! What a strange thing to find in a donation box, hehe.
