Aug. 7 (UPI) -- A Missouri man who sought to get rid of some pocket change bought a lottery ticket that won him considerably more pocket change -- $55,558.

He said he initially thought he had won $3,000, but he had a friend look over the ticket and they soon discovered he won additional money for making an 'X' on the bingo sheet.
