    1965 Dime

    For a second, I thought I had a 1861 nickel...then I realized it was 1981 and I was reading it upside down. :(

    given the popularity of other post-padding threads, i'm shocked this one has bombed.

    From the change compartment in my desk - 1965 Penny. Over a third of my change was dated before 1980. It's amazing how long change stays in circulation.

    At the moment I am stairing at 1 coin. A vintage 2005 dime.

    Now I do have a coin jar that has thousands of pennies in it, but I don't want to play that game thank you very much.
