Just last summer I found a couple of dimes in a parking lot. Then a bunch more. So I looked around for a little while. Ended up with a couple of dollars. Someone must have lost part of a roll.

tldr; searched around in a parking lot for dimes.

Exactly. I feel like I am telling the universe I don't want money if I am not willing to pick up free money, even if it is just a penny.

Got my butt chewed by the wife when I swung over to one side of the lane in a parking lot and told her to unbuckle, open the door and pick up that piece of paper. I had to get a bit nasty with her before she finally did as I had told her and then she picked up the wad of $20 bills that I had spotted.

Otherwise, a nickel. Only good use for pennies is to use as reinforcing when soldering the cracks in a copper radiator housing and they probably don't work too well for that now either. They are fine targets for a 17HMR though.

I'll pick up a penny if the heads side is facing up.

I pick all coins up. They all have “In God We Trust” stamped on them and I need all the Blessings that I can get.
