<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Inspector43, post: 26155433, member: 89213&quot;]About the Twenty Cent Piece: I&#039;ve told this many times so you may be tired of it. There was an old vegetable vendor that pushed a handcart down the alleys in our neighborhood. He sold produce out of his garden. One day mom gave me a Fifty Cent Piece and asked me to go out to him and buy something. Mom said it would be Twenty-Five Cents. I gave him the half dollar and he gave me a Twenty Cent Piece. They were almost the same size as a quarter and only in use for a few years in the 1870’s for this same reason – confusion. Now, technically, the vendor gained Five Cents and mom lost Five Cents. As I thought, when I told mom about the mix-up, I was told to put it in my coin collection.</p><p><br /></p><p>My youngest son now has the coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1669975[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
