    Please PM me your answers:

    1.) What year did the Mercury Dime and Walking Liberty Half Dollar begin?
    2.) What is a gold Stella?
    3.) Who designed the Continental Currency piece?
    4.) What year did the Lincoln Wheat Cent begin? The Lincoln Memorial Cent?
    5.) Why do some coins have reeded edges?
    6.) What year did the Gold Double Eagle begin?
    7.) A 1999 Commemorative honored the death of which president?
    8.) Who/what was depicted on the obverse of the first small cent, issued from 1856 to 1858?
    9.) The Roosevelt dime has the initials for it's designer, John Sinnock, under the bust of FDR's head. When the coin was first released in 1946, some believed that the initials were those of what dictator? (Hint: Remember, this is right after WWII...)
    10.) What are Hennings nickels?

    Good luck!
