Certainly that's a factor too. I dump ours back at the bank about once a year and it's usually $200-300 worth. Those jars and cans full will make...
It's the holidays, so... I got that excuse the other day. Some sort of slip was in my PO box saying a parcel was waiting in a bin. Not the usual...

I suppose their economy was different in 1972 as far as value of 5 shillings. My daughter gave me a 500, 200 and 100 shilling, and the total is...
You could look at it this way - the thickness of a Morgan dollar is supposedly 2.40mm. Your coin is 5% light. 5% thinner/lighter would be a 0.12mm...
I put the original images through Picasa's neutral color thingy, perhaps these are more what it looks like? If someone can find another with the...
My daughter brought home some coins for me from Tanzania. She was there on a nursing volunteer thing. Not in great condition but she said these...
