I am using more cash recently. I think I even saw an article today about people using cash more often. I have two reasons for my use: 1) folks have paid me in cash for stuff in the last year and I need to use it (too lazy to go to the bank) and 2) a lot of the shops near me don't let us use plastic for less than $X. So if I wanted a small bag of chips for lunch, I need to pay cash.

Interestingly, I recently started to use a credit card for a number of things that I would normally have used cash to purchase. I have for years tried to use cash whenever possible. BUT I could have taken a slightly higher deduction on my Federal Taxes if I had had receipts. So by credit carding the payments for co-pays and the like, I end up with a searchable journal of payments. No fees or interest on the card and I get cash back on all purchases. Plus after I have charged $500 (within the first 3 months), I get $150 from the bank.  Why not, I say. Of course, I transfer the payment to them as soon as I have used the card, so there will never be a balance.

Here is an interesting brand name on a token

I've never seen a KMart token before. Very nice!

Came out of the 50% off bin 2x2 had Miners tag written on it. Could be or a tool check or just about anything

What a great piece to add to your collection. 

Beautiful notes everyone. 

This is a wonderful project. I love the designs. 

Great looking coins. 

Nice coins. 

Hello and welcome. You can start a thread in the Exonumia subform. Nice pictures of both sides and sometimes the edge will help. 

Beautiful coin. I love my 7070. I doubt that it will ever be completely full. Maybe I'll give it to my Grandson. 

$9

Beautiful coin. 

Welcome. I hope you enjoy it here. I too remember spending Ikes. I still have a few in my collection and think they're rather neat.

"Idol"! "Coin Idle" is something much more boring 

 Well, I sit corrected.

Remember when we had threads like "what is your oldest dated coin?" or "Count backwards from X using coins"?

I remember those days. I also remember the coin idle contests. Wow! They were fun.

Nice find. Haven't gotten a Canadian coin of any kind in quite some time. Probably using debit card a lot has an effect on this. 

Nothing unusual in change so far this year, for me. 

Very nice Ik.

It's extremely kind of you to have waved at the person who just ran over your mirror. 

Seriously sorry to hear about your bad day and the problems. I hope everything is fine now. 

It's extremely kind of you to have waved at the person who just ran over your mirror. 

Sorry, I can't see the pics. I would guess it is a Philadelphia Mint Coin. The proof issues in 1962 were struck at Philadelphia and carried no mint mark, as is true of the Philadelphia circulation strikes. 1962 Roosevelts proof coins carry only a small premium over an unc coin and the quantities where huge. 

There are medals catalogs available. Some on the internet. I've never really done much research in that area. Sorry I can't be more help. I don't recognize them as anything from the US Mint.
