    Almost everyone has heard of Folsom Prison, that sounds like a pretty safe assumption. Beyond just knowing about it, I have to admit that I am simply not very informed about it's goings-on. Well, that slightly changed last night.

    I was watching a youtube channel (tasting history) about that prison and, while his main focus is of the episode is food, he also delves into some historical stuff about it. That's when I had heard a term very new to me: the Folsom Prison nickel.

    I found this website about it if anyone is interested in reading up on it.
