Packed with humor and heart, JumpStart is a modern comic strip with a classic feel. At the core of the JumpStart family is Joe Cobb, a big-city cop, and his wife, Marcy, a nurse in a bustling Philadelphia hospital. Their jobs are easy compared to the challenge of raising four kids. At the end of the day, Joe and Marcy want what we all want: a good night's sleep. Their oldest, Sunny, is an avid reader who can answer your questions before you have time to do a Google search. Her brother, Jojo (aka Joseph Cobb, Jr.), has aspirations of being president. In fact, he already is president — of his second-grade class. Joe and Marcy's newest surprise additions are the twins, Tommi and Teddy. This talkative pair began conversing in the womb and are still going strong. Imagine what they'll say when they actually learn to speak! Rounding out the cast is Crunchy, a grouchy but warm-hearted police officer who is Joe's partner, and a host of extended family members and friends. You'll enjoy the wit and wisdom of this colorful, unpredictable cast, which includes the antics of in-laws, co-workers, a 6-year-old doctor, and a texting dog named Snoog-A-Boo.

Beware of removed leg. Ashburn Stadium will know what I mean.

Wonder if he found some other rarities (i.e. 1943 copper penny, 1944 steel penny, 1955 double stamped penny, and 1983 copper penny).

Just like doctored 1912 Liberty-head nickels trying to fake the elusive 1913 clandestine versions.

@Tom
Don’t forget the 1974 aluminum penny!

Since copper and zinc are so pricey these days, perhaps the U.S. Mint should entertain bringing back a steel penny, but this time, copper-clad.

I have enjoyed this week’s strips of Rev. Glover interacting with his step-grandson.

Dipsy Doodles – the Wise version of Fritos.

I love Dipsy Doodles! But not as much as Butterscotch Krimpets.

There’s plenty of people who agitate for getting rid of the penny entirely. I can’t agree with them, though. I’ll never say “A nickel for your thoughts”- for a great many people, I’d be overpaying!

@The Wolf In Your Midst, don’t go to Canada, they just did. Trying to decide whether to hold on to my Canadian pennies in case they get to be worth more than 40c
How far back do we have to go that you could get a bag of anything for a nickel?

The particular coin they are discussing is worth a great deal of money – anywhere from $400 to $20,000 depending on condition.

I loved this week of Jump Start…loved it but if I don’t see Sunday’s comic then I’m going to cry

Most of my coin & bill collection came from being a cashier.
