I find pennies.......I don't know why, but ever since I was a kid I have been finding mostly pennies on the ground on a weekly basis. It has been a more frequent occurance, so I have decided to start logging the dates and types of coins I find so I can keep track. So far this year alone I have found several. One of the most significant coins I have ever found was in the most unusual place. We were in Talula Falls, GA for a few days a number of years ago and we were leaving and heading North. It was really early in the morning and there wasn't much traffic yet and we were getting ready to merge onto the interstate. We saw a tiny box turtle trying to cross the interstate and I got out to move the turtle to the side of the road so it wouldn't get hit by a car. The turtle wasn't much bigger than the palm of my hand. I reached down to pick up the turtle and right beside the turtle was a silver dollar. What a strange place to find a silver dollar, in the middle of the interstate while saving a turtle. I recently heard a story about a woman who found a puppy in the woods and found a quarter at the same time. She said she wondered if God was paying her for rescuing the puppy. Another woman told her that if you find a coin while helping an animal, it means that animal was reincarnated and has an "Old soul". I tried to look that up on the internet and found no information about that belief but it is weird how I found that silver dollar while helping the turtle. I still have the silver dollar.
