Seattle Man Cashes Fine With Rare Coin
Seattle man Richard Eskridge was arrested in Los Angeles for speeding at 75 mph during slow periods and paid a $20 fine in police court. He handed over a $50 bill, received coins including a $10 gold piece, and later used a $106 coin for a purchase after learning its rarity and collector value. Eskridge claimed the fine payment was a wise investment as the coin’s sale value could reach $80.
