The real change from Nancy Bell Scott

Yes, this will come in handy if I am ever in the USA. And if I am, I'll make sure I buy you something with it. I'll go to one of those 99 cent stores. You know the ones, the ones where everything costs 99 cents, but when you check out, it costs $1.07. Why don't the call it the $1.07 store? Why are the little coins worth 10c when the bigger coin is worth 5c ? Also the little one just says "dime" and the other one says "Nickel" why don't they have numbers on them? You see what you started! Thank you for this, it really gave me a smile. And to think that someone opened it along the way to see what was inside. Well all I can say is that people like that wouldn't know it was art if you put it in an envelope and sent it to them

La Poste machine detected COPPER! ('thought it was smuggling precious metals into France?)

Dean, good observation, how does one outside the USA know what is 5 cents and what is 10 cents?

We are so advanced with the EURO system on this side of the Big Pond! ;-)
