 * Symbol question.svg As always with Wehwalt's articles, it is well-written, well-referenced (AGF for the offline sources) and very comprehensive. Image is suitable and properly licensed, QPQ review not necessary. I prefer hook #2, but there should be a reference right after the sentence (note #a) supporting the usage of the term "nickel" for the one-cent piece as well. The other hooks are fine (again, AGF on the references). Constantine  ✍  13:50, 10 January 2014 (UTC)


 * Symbol voting keep.svg Going with ALT2. The article is new enough and long enough, the image is in the public domain and the inline citation for the hook is offline and accepted in good faith. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:56, 17 January 2014 (UTC)


 * Comment: I think the hook should mention which country's currency we are talking about here. --PFHLai (talk) 01:32, 18 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Adding "US" is doable for anyone, including the promoter. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 09:58, 18 January 2014 (UTC)
