Wife: Buy anything new today?
Me: Just an old half cent.
Wife: Expensive?
Me: Nah, got it for just a tad over wholesale.

Crikey, she's a beaut! The reverse is especially exquisite -- I love the
fractions on those coins. With the dumbing down of America, can you
imagine the backlash if we redenominated our coinage with fractions?
1/200 indeed!

Congrats, you're now a member of an exclusive "club"! Now, the question on
everyone's fingertips is - will it appear in your collection or in your
primo showcase?

Love the dialogue. Gonna memorize it for future use.

It'll reside in the showcase right between TWO 1795 Dollars, taking the
place of the 1907 High Relief Saint that we just sold.

Well, given the 1/000 coins the U.S. minted in 1800-02, I'm not
sure how much things have changed.
