A list of puns related to "The Medallion"
He asks the bank teller, Patty, for a loan. Patty explains that they don't usually offer loans to amphibians, but asks him if he has any collateral to offer. The frog thinks for a minute, then pulls out a strange medallion.
Patty has never seen anything like this before so, reluctantly, she goes to ask her boss about it. Reluctantly, because whenever he gets excited, her boss tends to get loud and slap people hard on the shoulder. She tells her boss about the frog, and shows him the medallion.
His eyes immediately light up he shouts "It's a nick-nack, Patty" WHACK "Give the frog a loan!"
Sure enough, after sailing for another year, he came to the place the enchantress had spoken of and found a trove of coins and medallions, enough to make him wealthy beyond his wildest dreams.
He brought all of it on board his ship and through storms and turmoil returned home with his prize. The assayor at the dock, however, took one look at all of it and told him it was worthless. Dejected, the young man walked away from his ship, and vowed never again to travel in search of his fortune.
"Sad, is it not?" said a friend of the assayor as he watched the young man shuffle away. "Aye," replied the assayor, "yet another victim of the pyrites of the Caribbean."
