[QUOTE="bhp3rd, post: 828298, member: 16510"][B]"""It's in The Red Book"""[/B] I was born in 1866. I was to replace a silver coin. I once had silver in me and I was more valuble than silver. I'm a metal, a name, a denomenation and I'm not even mostly me! I'm really mostly copper, composition .750 copper/.250 me. I do always look like me. My metal has been in a one cent coin, a three cent coin and in me. In my current denomenation I've been minted for 144 years, except for 4 years I've been the same compositon. For all 144 years I've been the same weight, 5 grams. For buisness strikes I've had 10 different design changes. The man that made the forth series of me did not get his name on me until 1966. I'm still in production. Of course all know I'm a nickle, (or will soon) because """It's in The Red Book"""[/QUOTE]
