saggitarius98, a question for you.
Hey, you seem to have a vast knowledge of a lot of these coins. I was just curious where you were able to learn it all. Do you have books?

Did you realize that Benjamin Franklin also said "Beer is proof that God loves us"? I just thought that was interesting after seeing your signature.

Did you know that Franklin never said that? It's a common misquote, here's the actual quote from which that myth is derived.
"Behold the rain which descends from heaven upon our vineyards, there it enters the roots of the vines, to be changed into wine, a constant proof that God loves us, and loves to see us happy."

My dad has a shirt with that.
1/100 of an American dollar is a cent. It is NOT a penny. The word penny is used by several other countries, such as Great Britain, to denote their smallest denomination. In order to be numismatically correct, you must use the term cent to describe the American coin.

I use my superpowers.
But with all seriousness, I have all the Krause Books of World coins from 1701 to 2010. I also use my large collection of foreign coins as a good way to ID coins (know many common symbols of countries).

Same thing, I just gave you the abridged version that would fit on a t-shirt...
