oldest coin in your change?

Morgan Silver dollar from 1886. Funny this topic just came up, I thought I had lost it, but while moving homes last month I came across it. It isn't in good condition, but was given to me when I was young by my grandmother.

 

off-topic a little: I have been putting together a Birth Year Set for myself. From my birth year, I have 331 different coins, and 8 bank notes, from 95 countries.

 

Don't trust Roman coins that have BC cast in them.

 

just checked my change.. saw a buffalo nickle and got all excited, turned it over to check the date, 2005

thats how much attention Ive been paying to the paymints lately.

whats the deal with quarters now? one for each state wasnt enough? what is it now, national parks?

 

just my opinion - probably pandering to collectors
