Hey FBE, Is the two bits link right? OH, EXCUSE ME, IS THE TWO BITS LINK RIGHT? (HA HA.)

Hi, Flying Blue Eagle!

It is much more legible if you don't use all capital letters. I've been thinking for awhile about telling you about that, but was waiting for a time when it would be the most polite way to do it.

Thanks!

CLOUGH - thanks for the info. . the last two days I have been trying to watch the caps lock ; Not a bit upset ; correction makes perfect sooner or latter ; Have a great day and God Bless ;;your friend F>B>E>

Jmjoseph - NO ,but here is the real answer;; In colonial americantimes,the coin most widelyaccepted was the spanish colonial 8 reales and its fractional parts of 4,2,1,and 1/2 reals. Sometimes an 8 reals coin was physically cut into pieces and used in daily transactions. The smallest piece was called a "bit" and was equal to 1/8 of the spanish milled dollar of 121/2 cent , making two of the pieces equivalent to 25 cents. Therefore, the expression " two bits " is also known as a slang term for "quarter-dollar;; I found this in the history part of the us mint under "historical information;; ;Have a great day and God Bless;; F.B.E.

Thank you Flying Blue Eagle!

Amrcnjckjosh -You are so very welcome , I really enjoy going to difgferent places on the web like the mint and go to the historical part, you'd be surprised what you can learn about coins and paper currency:: have a great day and GOD BLESS ; F.B.E.

Ahhhh... That looks so much better, Flying Blue Eagle! Thanks!

Clough- thank you so much ,I'm still trying ,just not as fast, who said that you couldn't teach an old dog new tricks ; have a good night and a better tomorrow and GOD BLESS;; F.B.E.

FBE, the wikipedia link I posted was the same answer as your description. Why did you say no?

jmjoseph - Because I was going by what the mint had written on that subject in the historical history at the mint;; have a great day and GOD BLESS;; F.B.E. Ps I can give you the E-mail for them if you want it ,let
Me know

Did anyone find a value for the dollar bill I have?

Hi again, amrcnjckjosh!

I will try to help you the best that I can. I'm not sure what has happened with Flying Blue Eagle. I'm very concerned about him, since he hasn't been on this site in awhile. I do have some contact information for him, but it's in another computer that is having a big problem. I will try to contact him.

Thanks!
