1988 French 20 Centimes found in circulation
Somehow I ended up with a 1988 French 20 Centimes in my pocket change.
About the same size as a US quarter but brown in color, if not looking carefully it could be mistaken for a quarter which is apparently what happened here. Don't know what store I got it from, just noticed it this morning. How a French coin got into circulation in Michigan is anyones guess. |

As to how it got there, it is reported that the lovely Brigitte Bardot... http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q...=Google+Search once vacationed in Ann Arbor. ;-) Amistad then again, maybe not' |

"Amistad" comes back to post a correction:
Sorry, the word "reported" in the above should be "rumored." Amistad 'sometimes known to fall into error' |

"stonej" offered this bold and sage observation:
I think I saw her at the annual Ann Arbor Art Fair last summer. Well, there ya go! :-) Amistad 'the mystery of the coin's appearance is now solved!' |
