When I visited The Auto Collections in The Quad (formerly Imperial Palace) on the Las Vegas Strip, I was struck by this little tableau ... an American couple of perhaps the 1950s, having a picnic on the showroom floor amidst a huge pile of coins.
According to a sign nearby, the coins are donations from museum visitors, and are given to charities, among which are the Wheelchair Foundation, St. Judes Ranch for Children, the Blind Center of Nevada, the Susan G. Komen Foundation, and Child Haven, among others.
Pretty interesting, plus it made a great display. So I did what anyone with a heart would do ... I added in my two cents ... and a couple of bucks on top of that.
