Day 67 - 3 coins from the 30's

When these were minted, Dad could get 2 good cigars and a pack of gum with them. When I was a kid, they would buy an afternoon at the movies. What can you buy today with eleven cents?

I don't know - there isn't even nickel candy anymore - I do like the detail that you caught with these coins.

I love that you were able to catch the detail on the coins.

I remember when candy bars used to cost a nickel. Oh well.
