Number One Dime

The Number One Dime is the first coin that Scrooge McDuck ever earned. According to The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck Scrooge earned the dime when he was ten years old. Before that it used to belong to Howard Rockerduck (The Father of John Rockerduck) Scrooge still has the dime and keeps it on a pillow under a glass monter because it is very special to him. It's only special because it's the first coin he earned even though Donald Duck, Huey Dewey and Louie, and Gladstone Gander among many others think it's a lucky charm. Magica De Spell believes the dime has magic powers inside it and she tries to steal from Scrooge so she can melt the coin into her amulent. The Number One Dime first appeared in Uncle Scrooge Four Color#3 in the story titled The Round Money Bin in 1953 by Carl Barks.
