Now This is Really Trivial

Some things are so trivial, that very few people would know the answer and who would care anyway? This is definitely something that no one really needs to know, but I thought I would share. Did you know that there are 118 ridges around the edge of a U.S. dime. Have you ever tried to count them? Hah!

So, if you haven't counted them, they could tell you anything reasonable and you'd probably believe it. I think you need to count them for yourself!

Yes, then a person would really know for sure, but I guess the U.S. Mint knows.

That is something I never knew. It does seem trivial. I will give you that. I personally don't think anyone would care about this. But I have to say it is an interesting thing.

@IreneVincent Right. That is something no one would ever think about. But when someone does it tends to become interesting. Thanks for this.

No, not an important fact at all, but interesting! Yes!

I was just happy to have a dime when I lived in NYC so I never bothered to really look at the coin. It was good enough to get me what I wanted.
How many pennies equal a dime? Want an easy way for your young child to remember? Show 'em this video! It also features skip-counting by tens, using both dim...

Really trivial. Something that no one really needs to know.
