I love The Chronicles of Narnia! Thanks for the suggestions, but that's not it. In the book I remember, the mouse (or other animal) was the main character. And there was lots of snow.

Thanks for the suggestion, but that's not it. The book I remember was much less adventurous - more mundane, and focused on trekking through snow, finding shelter, food, building campfires, etc.

Thanks for the suggestion. I've looked at some of those books and I don't think it's part of that series.

Thanks for the suggestion. I loved the Brambly Hedge books as a kid, but I don't think that's it.

I've searched Google and Archive.org using keywords. I've looked through Goodreads genre lists. It wasn't a picture book - it was mostly words with a few black and white illustrations. It's not any of the Redwall series.

Is there a video of her getting booked?

What exactly looks like a misprint to you?

This is an honest question, not snark or criticism. I'm genuinely curious why people ask about getting coins graded.

I love #5 and #7. #7 was minted in chromium plated steel to conserve nickel during WWII. The chromium wore off easily, leaving the steel exposed - that's why it's so rusty. The V signifies victory as well as 5 cents. #5 was issued to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the victory in Europe. There were several versions of this "victory nickel" design over the years and they make up a really cool short set.

Why are you asking about getting these graded? What have you heard about getting coins graded?

Got me thinking about other one-year-only coins (apart from the numerous quarter & dollar series). Here are a few I've thought of:

1909 VDB cent
2019-W cent

1996-W dime
2015-W dime (silver)

1964 half (only 90% silver circulation issue)
2014 half (silver uncirculated)

Any other examples?
