A Future Dime

I agree with this as well.
It's obviously altered (and not worth much) but it could be a cool conversation piece. The OP can walk up to someone and tell them about traveling back to the future!

For how many decades have we known that: the dollar coin will never take off unless the paper dollar is eliminated. (I also agree: the 1/2-dollar coin is a waste, but as a collector I also cringe...)

 

That's very true. Unfortunately it's more likely that we'll see a total elimination of cash and coins instead of basic reform (like replacing the paper dollar with a dollar coin).

 

OK, Dr Google says that we made 7.8 billion lincoln cents last year, and that it cost on average 1.8 cents to produce and distribute each one. So . . . that's a net loss of $62 million. No biggie, I suppose. Although, as they say: $62 million here, $62 million there, eventually it adds up to real money.

 

Hold on to it ….the more of them we find, the more desirable they will become…and he’ll with the people saying dude altered that coin. I just pulled this out of a roll today
