You got that right. That was actually the first silver dime I found roll hunting, then the next week I hit the jackpot and found a full roll of...

I cast my vote for the food, I could really go for a nice liverwurst sandwich right about now..... aaahhhh, just kidding. But as for the coins...
From what I've read the small manganese content within the war nickels makes extracting the silver more difficult and therefore more costly.
Interesting coin, my first time ever hearing about these.

I opened a new account at a bank in which an old account of mine was closed, they charge somewhere in the neighborhood of 2 dollars a month if...
I can see that argument being made, I'd imagine that banks may worry that customers would just switch banks in that event though, being how many...

Nice haul! Those Aussie pennies are very cool, never knew they made them that large, especially that deep into the 20th century.
No worries. Being that the machines determine what a coin is by their dimensions, you can find world coins in the trays fairly often as well.
Thanks, ya I'm still learning when it comes to errors, figured there may have been a chance of it being some sort of striking error. Oh well. I'll...
