<p>[QUOTE=&quot;V. Kurt Bellman, post: 2795155, member: 71723&quot;]Yep, but the next generation will NOT be led around by the schnozz. My son&#039;s specialty is (everything I can pass down to him, and...) Soviet Union and other Eastern Bloc coinage.

Nickel coinage has local significance because the initial mines and processes that made nickel in coinage practical were done by Joseph Wharton of Wharton School of Business at Penn fame, and the mine was in eastern Lancaster County, PA near a hamlet called Nickel Mines (site of the infamous Amish school shooting), which is near the modern-day town called Gap.</p><p><br /></p><p>Next , we&#039;ll more seriously take up Liberty/V nickels, or as the locals pronounce it, &quot;Wee Nickels.&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
