Old Codger NJ Valued Member United States 84 Posts	Posted 11/01/2025 1:01 pm Which US coins do you know, on which you can read the time on a clock? I have seen 2 different ones, maybe there are more. Edited by Old Codger NJ 11/01/2025 2:10 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34413 Posts	Posted 11/01/2025 3:12 pm That is a fun challenge @old. The only one that pops to my mind is the Kennedy half dollars issued for our bicentennial. On lightly worn specimens, you can see the clock on Independence Hall. Added: if this thread takes off, then maybe we will move it over to the gallery subforum "coins with clocks".

Old Codger NJ Valued Member United States 84 Posts	Posted 11/01/2025 4:59 pm Mike, I had not thought of the sun dial. I had the Kennedy Bicentennial half dollar with Independence Hall , and the 2019 Lowell quarter with the Boott Mill factory in the background. Keith and Spence you got them. Good job. I didn't see any on the 50 State Quarters. I would think a British coin has Big Ben. Edited by Old Codger NJ 11/01/2025 5:11 pm Report this Post to the Staff
