OK, it was not a cheese steak torta, but I did go down to the local Specialty's Bakery and grab a more standard cheese-steak, And am now convinced that there is a correlation between decent change and cheese-steak sandwiches of any sort. The sandwich was good… as was the change. But not quite good enough. (1963-D & 1973-S Cents were the highlights, both of which have already been represented as COTD) As luck would have it, there was more change to be had. Thanks to a roll of Necco wafers from the little market near the office I ended up with this 1961 Cent. So it's not anything truly outstanding, but it does qualify for the "older than me" category.
