The title got my attention.

 

Where are you getting these LCS? finally a nice merc the roses are fine to.

 

lol... "Roosevelt"

 

@Collecting Nut are you sure?

 

Your good nut...... NICE...

 

The title got my attention too. FDR died in April 1945. Maybe the mint did make some 1945 pattern coins, although I doubt it. The arguments were over who would get to design the coin, John Sinnock or an outside artist and once Sinnock was selected, where the "LIBERTY" would go.

 

Well, by 1945 Roosevelt had gotten the US through the 1929 Depression and almost all of WWII.
Maybe he should have been on the dime by that time

 

I bought a bunch of coins from an auction. They had an older dealer that overrated the coins and couldn't sell them. I got them very cheap as only one other person bid on them.

 

Imagine if the reverse of dimes looked like that today!

 

Fixed

 

No wonder. I sure blew that one. It's fixed now.

 

What did that mistake?your glasses or your fingers

 

I was having an elderly moment. It seems to be happening more often these days.

 

Neither, unfortunately.

 

I get it my friend. I'm having those moments too. Unfortunately I'm a couple of decades behind you. You're doing amazing! Keep on keeping on!

 

What is it they are called?


Oh yeah, a senior moment.
