Hackett kills someone and empties his pockets, leaving behind a monogrammed handkerchief and a keycase, taking the man's money only, realizing the other items could trap him into a murder charge. He goes to a bar and wishes to pay for his bill with a dime taken from his victim, but he sees that the coin has a hole in the center, so pays for the bill with a quarter. He throws the dime away, believing it to be the victim's lucky coin, but more appear in his pocket. Later killed in a car accident, the killer never hears the anouncement over the radio about these dimes!
