When I was a kid, my uncle had an old slot machine - we'd put Roosevelt dimes in
and often win Mercury dimes.

Great shot, Katherine! You've stirred up some memories for me with this image. My grandmother started coin collections for my sibblings and me and I remember the Mercury di,mes being quite the find. I like your composition on this image.---Deb

I like this one too Katherine. I can remember when these were circulating with the newer dimes and then they disappeared. I like the way you posed them with the whole one in front and others on top of each other behind. Ann C

Nicely photographed, Katherine...good lighting and composition...I esp like the detail on the focal subject coin & the effective use of DOF here too. Good idea. MFC

This is really neat! I have never seen these dimes before. I like your use of the rule of thirds in this one too. Great composition! Lisafx
