"Wikipedia does not have an article with this exact name. Please search for Hinduâ€"Arabic numeral system in Wikipedia to check for alternative titles or spellings. ..." If anyone wants to compare Asian Indian numerals to Arabic try the "Creounity Time Machine" at this link. http://creounity.com/apps/time_mach....htm&lang=en Lots to digest but well worth the time spent.

Spence Moderator United States 34401 Posts	Posted 04/18/2023 1:37 pm This has been an interesting thread, but to bring it back to the OP's question, what other US coins have used a cents symbol (comprising a letter c plus a nominally vertical, solid or interrupted line)? At least so far, all of the other coins mentioned or pictured just have the letter "c".
