She doesn't remember the buffalo nickel with the Indian head on the front, eh? Or the eagle being on the back of the pre-50 state quarter?

I'll bet she tried and the fiance didn't pass the test. Or else he didn't even want to make the attempt. BD only wants to be on the show sitting behind me in a companion seat.
I just ordered chicken and an egg from Amazon. I'll let you know.

The buffalo image was of an animal in the National Zoo.
Don't know who the native American was supposed to be.

$500: Oh, those eagleback nickels. What can I say?

Well, I can say I was young once. But when I was young, we actually had those non-eagleback nickels. Ah yes, I remember them well. I guess I can shut up now?
