At 3:42 am on July 28, 1976, a magnitude 7.8 earthquake struck Tangshan, an industrial city of 1 million people in northern China. The quake leveled about 85% of the buildings in Tangshan, which had been built on the unstable soil of the Luanhe River's flood plain. This alluvial soil liquefied during the quake, undermining entire neighborhoods. Hundreds of thousands of people lay dead after the quake, and more were trapped in the rubble. Coal miners working underground perished when the mines collapsed.At 3:42 am on July 28, 1976, a magnitude 7.8 earthquake struck Tangshan, an industrial city of 1 million people in northern China.

No other U.S. coin has been in circulation longer.Decades of inflation had taken their toll on the humble coin.

The sidesaddle was invented in the fourteenth century to protect the virginity of a teenage princess as she made her way across Europe to wed the young King of England. So, the assumption the sidesaddle was a product of fashion because of long flowing skirts and dresses, isn't how this particular piece of tack came about.
