I am bad when it comes to loose change. I literally just throw it in my ashtray or in my dresser drawer. What I need to do is start taking my coins and cashing them in at my local Saint Petersburg Publix. Before I do that though, I need to make sure I don’t have the quarter that’s worth $6K in my possession. Yes, there is a rare quarter out there that is worth $6k. The coin you’re looking for is 2004 Wisconsin state quarter. With one very specific error.

The coin you’re looking for has an extra leaf.  There are two different versions of the “Wisconsin Extra Leaf Quarters.” One of them is called the  “Low Leaf” which is the most common. The second version is called the “High Leaf”which is the scarcer one. Each version has an extra husks on the left side of the corn, which are not visible on the regular Wisconsin quarters.

According to the New York Post  “A 2004 Wisconsin quarter with an extra “low leaf” was auctioned for $6,000 in January 2020 and a 2004 Wisconsin quarter with an extra “high leaf” was auctioned for $2,530 in July 2006.” If you come across this quarter, take it and get it appraised. I actually was up all night checking all of my change, but have not came across this rare quarter yet. My birthday is in tomorrow and having this Wisconsin quarter would make it extra special. Good luck on finding one.

This Florida City Has Been Named Best Place To Live In The United States

I have lived in 4 cities in Florida and loved each of them differently. Tallahassee, Cape Coral, Fort Myers and now St. Petersburg. Which one did I like the best? I am loving St. Pete the most so far because there is a lot to do. None of the cities I lived in was named best place to live in the United States, but I did live near the one that is.

Scholaroo compared 150 cities in the US in 9 different areas. Affordability, Crime levels, Leisure/Entertainment, Quality of life, Healthcare, Education, Employment, and Infrastructure. Can you guess which city in Florida was ranked number one for 2023? This particular Florida city was ranked last for affordability but #1 in Leisure & Entertainment and Healthcare. Still can’t guess? Below are the top 10 cities to live in the United States.

  • 10. Cambridge, Massachusetts
