National Lost Penny Day

 I realize that you may find coin collecting to be boring. Did you know that coins have holidays dedicated to them?

February 12th was Lost Penny Day. 

What is Lost Penny Day and How Do You Celebrate it? Lost Penny Day will give you an excuse to clean your house. Check through all your couch cushions, coat pockets, dresser drawers, etc. See how much change you can find, and count it up. Celebrate the fact that you found some money. Spend the money on something enjoyable. Donate it to a charity.

Lost Penny Day was invented by Addrienne Sioux Koopersmith. It was first celebrated in 1995.
