Decade - 1950s

If there is no letter to the right of the image of Monticello on the coin's back, your nickel is worth about 15¢

If there is a small "D", it's worth $5 to $10 depending on condition.

However there are counterfeits of the 1950-D coin so you should have it examined by a dealer or appraiser.

Racism was horrific in the 1920s. By 1925 there were 1/2 a million members in the ku klux klan (a racist organisation) and lynchings were commonplace. Non-whites were not respected and segregation was still taking place. Asians were banned from entering the USA entirely.

George H. W. Bush started the Persian Gulf War. He thought this was necessary because he thought the invasion of the oil rich countries was a threat to the international economy.

goths did not exist in the 1950s the culture hadn't begun until the late 1970s but was more popular in the 1980s

At school in the 1950s if boys got in trouble they would get hit with a cane or throun at with a slipper. When the girls had to stay behind school writing lines that is what we call a ditention.

long story short---basically most of the people in the U.S. were being paranoid about the threat of communism. so this also effected education. example: iif a teacher was suspected of being a communist then they would suspend that teacher without pay.

the end

City life during the 50's was generally a happy and prosperous life. Americans and others around the world were often concerned with the possibility of a nuclear attack, but without those worries, the nation as a whole was recovering from the war and living life to its fullest.

the cars a silly inventions X (wrong! its a cross!)

The car is a good invention until the extent of it polluting the planet. The car has been thouroghly improved throughout the decades such as the fact that they are now lower longer and wider. The early 1950s saw the rise of chrome on cars, as it became extremely popular in the U.S.A. (Can't find a tick on the keyboard but it's correct.)

yes they did because they thought that their feet would get all sweaty so they put socks on. And also i saw it on a school tape.

education was hard, people had to learn long multipucation and divisons,

Seperate but equal was the term commonly used. It was anything but equal. In much of the US separate towns and neighborhoods were the norm, segregated schools, bathrooms, water fountains, bathrooms, dining facilities, hospitals and churches existed and accepted without question as society's norm.

He conducted hearings on communist subversion in America and investigated alleged communist infiltration of the armed forces. But he did it in a way that advanced his own power and fame, and caused a great deal of trial and hardship for citizens who had different legitimate points of view politically without being disloyal to the US. Just to be accused by McCarthy, or brought before one of his hearings was like a 'kiss of death'. Professions and reputations were ruined during that cold war period, just because of the strange paranoid fear that was spread and kindled by McCarthy and his henchmen. Many in the entertainment industry were 'black-listed' and prevented from work; producers and directors feared that if they hired actors and others who had been 'exposed' by McCarthy, they would be accused of subversive activity just by hiring them. While he may not have been a communist, McCarthy was certainly not beyond reproach. For his reckless accusations and his inability to substantiate them, he was eventually censured by the Senate; his run at power and fame came to an end. There are many other interesting things about his life and career.

Guys were Pompadore like Elvis, flat top flat on the top with the sides pused back, crew cut like the service men. Girls had ratted hair where they teased it on top to make it high, page boy kind of layered with bangs.
