Quit being so anal. It's been called a "penny" for decades if not longer. It's a nickname. Get over it.
The silver eagle and dime are fine. It's that blasted nickel obverse that has got to go.
Yeah, but it's the easiest way to get coins that you wouldn't normally be able to get.
That's a great image. Thanks for sharing.
My silver dime count has to be up to at least 35.
Tonight was a slow night but about 2 hours before I got off a customer came in and paid with a bunch of dimes. I immediately spotted the silver...

Great post. I agree 100%.
Mine were too. They told the government they were "black Dutch" and remained in the southern Appalachians until they moved (willingly) to...
