BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 04/25/2019 05:23 am Amazing story. The $1.95 she had in her purse would be worth over $50 in today's buying power. The "cents" were the equivalent of today's "quarters". ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff

acloco Pillar of the Community United States 3540 Posts	Posted 04/26/2019 12:13 am Quite a sum of money in 1915. Notice the Lincoln is a 1914 Philly issue? Report this Post to the Staff
joecoin Pillar of the Community United States 789 Posts	Posted 04/26/2019 1:40 pm Quote: Now someone will say they lost that. And the insurance company will say they paid out on the loss and demand restitution. Then the government will stake a claim on it as treasure trove. Report this Post to the Staff
