I told Ed Philipp (co-founder of http://TeleSeminarNation.com) that when I ride my bike, I almost always find coins on the road. Most of them are around stop lights.

I joke with Ed and tell him I measure the kind of day I'm having by the number of coins I find. "Oh, today was a 3 Coin Day," I might say.

In the hot summer days, I discovered some coins that had sunken into the asphalt. I couldn't just pick them up. I had to pry them loose.

The coin that is in this photo was one that was in the asphalt. I went by it, realized it was embedded, then pulled off and found a small branch. I pryed it out and went on my way.

Have you every found coins on the ground? What do you do them?
