Super old things from the nineteen hundreds...

E: "Guess what?!"
Me: "What?"
E: "I found a quarter on the playground today!"
Me: "That's awesome!"
E: "It was just laying there! A quarter!"
Me: "You have a good eye!"
E: "Yep. I was pretty impressed with myself. I put it in my pocket to make sure I wouldn't lose it."
Me: "Have you put it in your bank yet?"
E: "Nope. I don't have it anymore."
Me: "What happened?"
E: "I traded it for a penny that my friend found."
Me: "You traded a quarter for a penny?"
E: "Yeah. It was from, like, 1992, so super old. I thought it might be worth something."
Me: "1992 wasn't that long ago, bubs. I think it's still only worth a penny."
E: "Something from the NINETEEN HUNDREDS is only worth a penny? But it's crazy old!"
Me: "Dude. I'm from the nineteen hundreds."
E: "Right..."
Me: "Whatevs. I'm going to start making dinner soon."
