    The reason the three-cent coin was introduced was at the same time, Congress reduced the price of mailing a letter from five cents to three. That caused a problem: with the price of a postage stamp at five cents, you would just put down a small half dime; but at the new price, people would have to put down three rather large pennies. Back in 1851, the penny was four times larger than the pennies we have today, and just as expensive to make; so Congress alleviated this problem with a three-cent coin that was as small as a half dime.

    The half cent coins were handy in pre-Civil War years. Mexican dollars (8 reale) were common in the West. To make change, merchants chopped them into pieces known as bits. a one bit piece was worth 12.5 cents, which led to prices with half cents in them.

No one at the store would listen to anyone else there, not even mall security, that the $2 bill was legit. The cop felt so bad for the lady he paid for her whole meal and told the Taco Bell employees he'd be calling their boss to let them know the sort of idiots he had working for them.

    The V Nickel also had no denomination on it when it first came out. People gold plated them and passed them off as 5 dollar gold pieces because they had the Roman Numeral five V on the reverse. Coin dealers sell them and they are known as "racketeer nickels" in the industry.

    In the past, 5-cent pieces were called half-dimes. When the mint changed the metal composition from Ag-Cu to Cu-Ni, people started calling the coin a nickel because its color is unlike 10/25/50-cent pieces and older half-dimes. BTW, "nickel" is only an informal term, and the coin isn't stamped with the word "nickel" on any side (or edge) of the coin. The coin is more Cu than Ni (75%-25%), but its faux silver appearance misleads many people now to think it's mostly nickel, or even silver (0%).
