I got this recently, wonder what the story behind it is. It's a simple 1992 P dime.

    I can understand not liking FDR, given the destruction he caused. Not sure I would take it out on a dime.

    Agree with the washer theory.

    Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

    I have actually witnessed an electrician use a silver quarter for a washer. The lucky demolition worker who dismantles that project.

    I'd say those sights are dialed in perfectly. Looks like a .22 cal. image

    The funny thing is that you could probably buy a washer like this at the hardware store for a nickel.

    I had to buy 4 washers a few weeks ago, they cost me 15 cents each (plus 5 cents sales tax)!

    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.
