Hey, I noticed at my local Meijer grocery store, while using a self check- out, that the coin slot looked big enough to take halves. So tonight, I tried a half if the machine, hoping it wouldn't some how jam the machine, but the machine just spit the half back out at me, so I was wondering, if...

Apparently the depiction of tobacco use paraphrenalia on the new nickel (ostensibly a "peace pipe") has raised the ire of certain anti-smoking groups, forcing the government to recall all the new nickels recently released. (hey, someone's gotta start these rumors, right?) -- Bob

I went to my local branch bank in Minneapolis to deposit a check. On my way to the bank I got the idea to buy a box of quarters. I was not going to request a specific box; rather just take what they give me and see what I find. Maybe I will find some uncirculated state quarters or if I am...

The rest of the obverse is in G shape and...

Can anybody give me a short course in determining an early and good and circulated reproduction from the real deal in standing liberty quarters?
