Trivia question
An easy one, straight from the pages of Numismatic News and Alan Hebert's
column. By law, all U. S. regular circulation coins with a value above 25c must have an eagle on the reverse. The state quarters are an obvious exception. Can you name other recent exceptions? Richard

Ok, let's rephrase that. "By law, all U. S. regular circulation coins with
a value of 25c and above must have an eagle on the reverse. The state quarters are an obvious exception. Can you name other recent exceptions?"

By law, all U. S. regular circulation coins with a value above 25c must
have an eagle on the reverse. The state quarters are an obvious exception. Can you name other recent exceptions? If you consider 30 years ago as 'recent' then the 1776-1976 bicentennial coins would fit the description. -- Brian Blackwell SPMC 9522 ANA LM2644 My Obsolete Banknotes Page http://home.att.net/~brianblackwell/obsolete.htm
