6. Nah. Those are

my earbuds. I can't be bothered buying the high-end ones.



Honestly, I don't know the origin of those coins. Just looked for some ugly ones via a Google picture search.

11. Is that a

P-E-N-

Never mind!!!

12. It's very worn...but the obverse is the head of a woman, and the reverse is...

a bunch of grapes hanging from a vine.

13. That's very informative.

Who hacked into LuckyCharms' DU account? I want the nutty character back!

14. Sorry, True Dough...

It's been one of those days.

Also, I'm a numismatist...it's a longtime hobby of mine, so I geek out over coins.

15. A numismatist?

I hope your doc has a cure, Lucky. Sounds painful!

3. I saved a couple of circulated coins

Mine are silver. They are my favorite. My husband got me a newly minted one for Christmas one year

[LuckyCharms]

4. What are they, Marthe?

[Marthe48]

8. EDIT: On checking, not the ones you mentioned

I have a 2001 Walking Liberty. Sorry for the confusion.

[LuckyCharms]

9. Do they look like this?

American Silver Eagle. Worth about 90 bucks each. But the sentimental value is priceless!

Edit to add: I buy 3 of these every Christmas for my friend's 3 kids.

10. Yes, that is the one :)

A long time ago, before the Internet, one of the local newspapers had a trivia contest. Person with the most correct answers each week won a silver dollar. I won several, then the paper limited it to one per person. It was fun while it lasted
