The main reason half dollars and dollar coins don't circulate, there's no room for them in the cash register drawer, and that's not likely to...
Here's an article that might help. If it doesn't help, at least it's worth knowing. The OP's coin "may" be an evasion token....
Once again, it depends whether you're a numismatist or a stacker. If I was offered 40% (or War nickels) at 91%, with no postage or freight to...
For Garlicus, here is the big fancy word you're searching for: Seigniorage /ˈseɪnjərɪdʒ/, also spelled seignorage or seigneurage (from Old French...
