For example, ancient colletors might consider anything minted after 400 AD as being modern. Others might say the line comes in 1643 when milled coinage (as opposed to hammered) came into use. </p><p><br /></p><p>When discussing US coins there are two typical break points. One occurs with the advent of the Lincoln cent in 1909, the Buff in 1913, and the dime, quarter and half in 1916; and the other (more common) occurs with the advent of clad coinage in 1965.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
