Ah, 1950. When a nickel would buy you a three-course dinner at a fancy steak house. If you wanted to splurge, you could spend another nickel and get a 50 year old bottle of Chateau Latour.
If I wasn’t so lazy, I’d compile a list of gags and the number of times they are used over a year. For example, this is at least the third time I’ve seen the “lost nickel/quarter” gag in the strip this year.

You wish, Nancy. But good joke.

You could make a nickel go pretty far back then.
