I have often noticed the smell of pennies - but I never followed their trail. Thanks for showing me what I missed. Robin I loved this post!

Although things are a little different here in Australia, our old one and two cent coins had a distinctive smell. The govt. phased these coins out a few years ago and when my children find one (there are still a few lying around in old jars etc. in the house) they are fascinated to find out they are MONEY!

What a wonderful husband your friend has! A smell dictionary? An unusual but beautiful expression of LOVE! WGM, OOooo, I'm so glad it stirred your own remembrances! Can't you remember dumping everything out on the floor to re-examine your stash? Good times :). Karen, awwwww...sweetest comment EVAH! This is a post I've wanted to write FOREVER, but never got around to...so glad Janice & Susan gave me "reason" :). Susan, I bet most of us had our "Mary's"; our "Five and Dime" (and I think that's what it was called) was taken over by the grocery store next door. At least I was in college (married?) when that happened, but it makes me sad when I go back home and see it. Thanks for your kind words here, but also for hosting this fun column! I've enjoyed reading new bloggers through The Sampler...and other 5minutes columns. You and Janice ROCK! :) Michelle, well, that’s a BIG part of the point :) (I mean, “Scents” is part of the title ;) ). What a wonderful husband your friend has! A smell dictionary?

Thank you Robin for such a brilliant post. You took me back to my own childhood candy store trips. Janice and I would also treasure what a handful of small coins could bring us at our neighborhood candy store, Mary's. It was a sad day when Mary's closed down and in her place some forgettable store then stood. Wow!
