favorite "money"

Is it true that The Orleans distributes chips with images of Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson? Or at least Granny Clampett?

Not true. Granny of The Beverly Hillbillies was really named Granny Moses, she was Jed Clampett's mother in law.
And Granny would rather have had a chip with the likeness of Gen. Jeb Stuart, her hero.

As per Wikipedia: Granny's name was Daisy Moses. Granny is frequently referred to as "Granny Clampett" in a number of episodes but technically she was a Moses.
Please explain this item about Grant and the Confederate States?

Thanks for the info about subway tokens. Havent been on a subway since 1979.

There is a toll road in Orange County, CA that sometimes gives half dollars as change by the toll collectors. (forgot to mention that above)

And I am yet to get a presidential dollar coin in circulation... and when I asked about them at my local Bank of America they said they had none on hand but I could "order" them. and around the Christmas holidays, BofA routinely brings in new $1, $2 and $5 bills which they call "holiday money" for those wanting new money for tips and gift giving.

Several servers I've tipped with presidential dollar coins have remarked they are saving them rather than spending them. I've not seen any "in circulation" either that did not originate from me.

One server commented she had almost 50 of them put away, all from me. I asked if she wanted to sell them back and she said "NO".

It's a superstition, there isn't going to be any hard evidence.
