Look at 5:15, the cashier/clerk pulls out:

-1 steel penny
-2 copper wheat
-non-silver Jefferson nickel, possibly pre-war 1938-1942
-what appears to be a Buffalo nickel
-a Merc or silver Rosie
-a Silver Washington
-a Walking Liberty half



Most interesting to note is the half dollar tray actually being used. A shame that had to stop.

Funny, nearly $3 for a gallon of paint, and $5 to fill the electricians tank in 1947. Now, it's about 10 times that.

I imagine you could still fill your tank for $5............But you would have to pay in Morgans

Not coin related, but I like the suicide doors on the electrician's car at 1:40.

The paper bills and even the coins are not in themselves actually worth the amounts they represent.


LOL, they are now! Many times over!
