Three-cent bronze
Probably going to correct. I put it as not circulated since the same was being said about the Stella. My mistake --Salem Leo (talk) 20:17, 16 March 2016 (UTC)

$100,000,000 Federal Reserve Note
I have some sources, although most of them would be considered conspiracy sites and not reliable sources. The story generally goes that the aforementioned FRNs were issued as receipts for wealthy Chinese families' gold, but several planes carrying the notes crashed in a jungle/cave, and that the bonds were recovered by local tribes decades later. Have you got a consensus on their authenticity? --2607:FB90:6050:28D:0:40:748C:6201 (talk) 21:45, 21 March 2017 (UTC)

Series 1934 $900,000,000 SC
Just curious as to why you had removed the $900,000,000 SC that I had earlier added, which you claimed was fake. If so, would you instead suggest it be added to the Fake denominations of United States currency page? Anyways, I realize you edit pages concerning numismatics, and I look forward to working with you in the near future. Thanks. --JGaines319 (talk) 02:34, 18 April 2017 (UTC)

W mint cents
They're doing it for collector's sets this year. See here, page down to near the bottom. Apparently there are going to be three different 2019-W premium cents, none released for circulation.--Wehwalt (talk) 23:14, 26 February 2019 (UTC)
 * I've added these (along with the other 2019 cents) to United States cent mintage figures. - ZLEA  Talk \ Contribs 17:16, 21 March 2019 (UTC)

About that $2,000 bill
As they are private issues, I would concur that odd denomination Obsolete banknotes like $3 or $8 bills don't belong. However, in the case of the $2,000 bill, the difference is that rather being issued by any random private bank, the note was actually issued by a government institution, the Second Bank of the United States. --Enterlousy (talk) 18:56, 14 March 2019 (UTC)

Half union
Should the Panama Pacific Exposition version of the half union be added into the table in Obsolete denominations of United States currency? --Enterlousy (talk) 16:02, 22 March 2019 (UTC)

Northridge quake
You referred to the Northridge quake in your message, I assume you actually mean the 2019 Ridgecrest earthquakes. The significance of the distance from the most notorious fault is important, so Littlerock, California signifies approximately the closest that fault passes near the quake zone. Because the San Andreas is on a severe west, northwest angle, by the time it reaches due east of the zone, it might also be 180 miles from Ridgecrest. I haven't calculated, it is NOT significant, nor would due north be. Proximity is significant. The proximity to the large population of Los Angeles would also be a significant distance to mention. San Francisco (notorious but no longer even the biggest city in its metro area) is so far away it is not significant to mention, particularly in the lede. Trackinfo (talk) 21:49, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Nearest point on the fault is a decent way of putting it. Trackinfo (talk) 05:32, 12 July 2019 (UTC)

US Nickel
Following up: Man, it's crazy that Wikipedia doesn't have a normal messaging feature. So to your train of thought on the Canadian nickel, part of my angle was that it's almost identical to the US coin – all the Canadian coins are nearly identical to their US counterparts, and since Canada is one of only two neighboring countries it seemed very related. As far as where the line is, I don't know. You mentioned the British 5 pence coin – I wouldn't care if someone added that, but I don't see it as related enough for me to add it myself... (It's physically much different from the US coin, more like a thick US dime, and British coins are unrelated to US coins – we don't see them co-circulate the way US and Canadian coins do.) BlueSingularity (talk) 17:36, 31 March 2020 (UTC)

Hello, not sure how to message people. You deleted my reference to the Canadian nickel in the See Also section at the bottom. That's what See Also is for – related entities or subjects. Many coin pages have related coins in the See Also. For example, see the US quarter and US penny articles – in their See Also they have the Canadian quarter and Canadian penny, respectively (and it wasn't me who put them there...) Likewise, the Canadian nickel is almost identical to its American counterpart. Note also that the note at the top of the article mentions the Canadian nickel, because it's similar: "This article is about the U.S. five-cent coin. For its Canadian counterpart, see Nickel (Canadian coin)." --BlueSingularity (talk) 10:28, 30 March 2020 (UTC)
