She came back and said that the guy claimed they were worth a lot more than face value, and I told her to tell him that we were not a coin collector shop, and if he wanted to get more than face value for them he should go to a coin dealer. To my surprise she gave me the coins to change out for her.
We were right beside a police station, so after work I went in and told them what happened; just in case anybody filed a complaint about missing/stolen coins. I never heard anything about it. I suppose I should see how much those suckers are worth now.

You are such an unreasonable man. The last time I tried paying my tab with gold dubloons and pieces of eight the bartender accepted them graciously and bought me a beer on top.....
