This is really cool!

I liked seeing the FDR medal being created, seeing as how I have two of them in the FDR C&C.

I had to smile at the dated references regarding the cost of things.

Like 5 cents for a cup of coffee.

To think this was filmed 76 years ago. All the neat coins that haven't even been minted there yet. Like the 1955 double die Lincoln for example.
