Circulation strikes: 117,183,060
Designer: Felix Schlag
Diameter: 22.1 millimeters
Metal content:
Copper – 75%
Nickel – 25%
Weight: 5 grams
Edge: Plain
Mintmark: “D” (for Denver) to the right of the building on the reverse
Value: $0.60 (MS-60) up to $1.50 (MS-65)
I commented yesterday that I might have to raid my stash of unsorted coin to find something to post today.
…or I could raid the wife’s purse. As it turns out the wife had some decent change. Best of the lot was this 1954-D Five Cent. Maybe not all nice and pretty, but anything from the ‘50s (or earlier) is a good find in any condition.
So I spent a bit of time sorting coin yesterday, and was surprised to realize that I don’t have any 1999-P Delaware state quarters in my circulation coins… none, zip, zero. Since I’ve kept all the state quarters that came my way it seems odd that I wouldn’t have at least one. On the up side, it gives me something to actively search for as I fill out that first coin album (circulation state quarters)
