Dearborn, that made me think of how interesting it would be to have paid for a 5 cent item with these, never actually crossed my mind for some reason!

I remember stopping by the local candy store on my way home from school and buying 5 Bazooka bubble gum with a nickel.. (Oh, those were the days)

Penny candy was very popular back in the day. You could also get full size candy bars for a nickel.

Dearborn, how about $.10 for a glass bottle of Coke? And a nickel for a Baby Ruth. That was the 1960's.

Thanks, everyone.
E&V: It was north of the RB price for the grade but not as much as the RB listed price for a PF-66. . .Photos don't do it justice. Very pleased with the purchase.
