Appreciation

I have a coffee can

from back when coffee came in cans.

It is full of old coins that are of little value.

Buffalo nickels with unreadable dates,

Standing Liberty quarters that are badly worn,

low grade Mercury dimes of common dates and mint marks,

and Indian Head pennies that show signs of damage and wear.

Most of these coins are only worth face value

or the scrap value of the particular metal they are made from.

However, I found a way to turn them into valuable treasures

simply by burying them in the sandbox for the grandchildren to discover.
