Simply "Late Night Dime Time!" Please join in......

Just came up with in my strange mind. It's simply "Late Night Dime Time!", all coins or tokens in with a face value of 10 cents.
Here are just a few to start us off....

here are a couple randomly from my coin folder lol

 

Two 1948 dimes.

 

A simple pile of dimes.

 

Why does the first one say 1947 with a symbol?

 

It was to differentiate for a design change.

 

The effort that goes into starting a collection it was a nickel , sure looked like a silver dime from my view.

 

Thought I would pop in for a few minutes. I have a few dimes for the type set.

 

Slightly more complicated story but accurate enough. India gained its independence in 1947 and Canada didn't want "ET IND: IMP:" on their 1948 coins, since the king was no longer emperor of India. But all their coin dies were made in England at the time and the Royal Mint was slow to revise the design. So Canada punched a maple leaf into their old 1947 dies and used them in 1948 until the "dei gratia rex" design arrived, so that people knew it wasn't their fault I guess. GB and Australia didn't seem to care, they still minted ET IND: IMP: coins dated 1948.

 

Broadstruck.

 

No dime, but here's a California token, same size! And a buffalo token same size as well! Not too many dime size tokens but I have a few!
