Dear Miss Liz,

We are happy that you are coming. When you come you have to use our money not British money. I will help you with our money don't worry. I will show you:

  • pennies = 1 cent
  • nickels = 5 cents
  • dimes = 10 cents
  • quarters = 25 cents
  • half dollar = 50 cents
  • Susan B. Anthony dollar = 100 cents = 1 dollar
I like your coin that has 7 edges. The little coin looks like a dime in America.

Your friend,
Heather
