1944 Dime

Friday 7 March 2003

I found this 59-year-old dime in my pocket:

1944 dime

In all my life, I've never seen a dime other than the usual FDR dime. Now, in the 21st century, a Mercury-head dime just shows up in some change. This dime has been kicking around since World War II, and has passed through who knows how many hands? Remarkable.
