<p>[QUOTE=&quot;walterallen, post: 150593, member: 4068&quot;]When you figure that laborers depending on skill didn&#039;t make much more then $0.60-$2.00 &quot;a week&quot; a nickel or 5 cent piece was a lot of money. Actually any money must have been a lot of money.</p><p><br /></p><p>I imagine people bought things that they could not grow, make or trade for. Can you imagine how today&#039;s average person would deal with a life like that. I think many would just lay down and die if they could not get to the &quot;Super Wal-Mart&quot; and buy what they want on credit.</p><p><br /></p><p>That&#039;s one of the things I like about coin collecting, to me it stimulates the mind about the past instead of forgetting it ever exsisted.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
