Today, I was doing the weekly cash register report for the Kingston library, which requires counting out the till. In the quarter slot, I found a Finnish markka.

I swapped it out for a quarter so that our count would be correct and so that I could keep it. Because who doesn't like coinage from other countries that they don't even use anymore? And anyway, the form we fill out for the report has a space for Canadian coinage but nothing for any other currency.

The real question is, who had that in their pocket and decided to pay us with it?

I don't know, but I'd totally be there with you about swapping coins to keep the Finnish one. I like carrying things like two dollar bills and dollar coins and strange bits. Consider yourself awesome by having it.
