So here we are in 1908 and I have a pile of Lead that I don't know what to do with. Someone said why not sell it to China? What would China do with Lead?
Lots of great things being said here. To bad computers and monitors haven't been invented yet so we could read them.
Any body hear those rumors that the Mints are going to start putting an S on some Indian Head cents to comfuse people?
If the Mint really takes the Indian off our Cents they will retaliate by opening up gambling places and taking all our coins.

This one is just for you...

I keep getting those large cents in change. I would have thought they would all be gone by now, being that the last ones were minted over fifty years ago.

Oh well, maybe one day someone will make a nice book-like album so I can put them all in as a collection. Maybe it will be called a 7099?

I do not think Lincoln or any president would want to be on a regular circulating coin! I hope they do not go and replace all of the images of Liberty with presidents!

But since Ben Franklin was never a president, perhaps that's less of a Monarchist statement?

Ben Franklin on a coin? Interesting concept and I might actually like that. I think that guy from the future just said I might be pleasantly surprised in 40 years!
Rest in Peace

I cant belive the new parking meters are 10 cents now and they only accept them new small 1916 murcury dimes.

Our parking meters were a nickel into the 80s.

Parking meters? No worries...whenever the Sheriff sticks a parking ticket on my horse, he eats it. Good horse!

Well you know they can trace it now with that farm use license plate you have to mount on your horse now. Said something about wanting to tax you transportation...|That old guy also said people will be running for fun in the future. That will be the day
