Penny boxes

[Jluck456]

Hi everyone! I've been reading these forums for quite some time now and just decided to make an account. I've been crhing for about 2 years now and still consider myself new to this. I mostly do pennies. I keep all pre 1982, wheats, the S mint marks and search for errors and all that. I was wondering if you guys who search penny rolls could tell me what you guys search for?

I got one: why do people call that short paved road in front of their garage "driveway" instead of "park way"? Most time your cars just park on it. On the other hand, why do people call that big highway connecting two cities "XXX Parkway" instead of "XXX Driveway"? You know that you can not park your cars on the freaking Parkway. So the mass are very wrong on this one and need to be corrected.

Uh, maybe cause the driveway wasn't actually made for parking? It's a "driveway" to the place where you park - garage.

Why do the call buildings buildings if they're already built? They should be called builts.

Don't want to ruin the comedy, but the original idea for Parkways was to create urban green space. The idea that it be a scenic respite from the common, fast moving urban traffic of the late 19th century. The later term would be a "scenic route".

And THAT was a wonderful educational moment brought to you by a history teacher. You're all welcome.
