Since I've seen several responses on the 1938-O half about it being dipped I have a question. Shouldn't it be assumed that many early American...

I'll wait until tomorrow to give you details on the half cent.

The rumor that caused people to hoard TP was that the only food one could get during the pandemic was from Taco Bell.
