Whenever I find money, that's nice, but there's something about finding a quarter on the ground that takes me back to my childhood, when a quarter seemed like mega-riches. Add extra points if it is really shiny, a state quarter, or a bicentennial quarter. The second I lean over to grab it, I get transported back in time and think of the excitement of being able to pick a pack of baseball cards or getting to play one extra game at the arcade.

I guess that's why I'd be excited to find a quarter; to take me back, even if temporarily, to an age of innocence.
