    Well, it finally happened to me today. My kids attend a Kid's church function on Wednesday nights so the wife and I decided to eat at Subway. Had a great meal and great conversation but the footlong didn't quite fill me up. My students were telling me how excited they were that Burger Kings chicken fries were back. I decided to visit BK next door and buy some. The total was $3.12. I was bummed because I didn't have any change on me. I handed the cashier four ones and she gave me $0.88 in change. As I was waiting for my order, I glanced at the seven coins in my hand. Lo and behold, a 1964 quarter was staring back at me. At today's silver prices, I paid $3.12 and received $4.21 in change plus an order of chicken fries. = ☺ uploadfromtaptalk1407971271702.jpg

    I bet it made those chicken fries taste even better. I remember the first I got a lottery ticket I won $15 which was used to buy me and my friend lunch at burger king. Great day.

    Even I would eat at Burger King if I got any sort of silver in change. Otherwise forget it.

    Unfortunately, the hype surrounding the BK's Chicken Fries was substantially over exaggerated. I wasn't impressed. But I'm obviously glad that I went.

    Pretty much sums up my opinion of their diesel flavoured food.

    My Burger King cashier examines the change before he gives it to me. One time he sorted out a dime and kept it. I asked him why did he keep that dime and he said it was old and he collects old coins. I asked him with a smile was it a silver dime. He smiled back and said yes.

    Another Burger King story. A friend of mine gave me a mint gold plated quarter he received in a bank roll. Hungry now

    That cashier must know nothing about coins. Was it a teenager? I got a 1964 also a few years ago at a supermarket. Put it in a coin capsule right away so I won't spend it my mistake! Do the same.
