You'd be amazed what your gramma would do for ninety fi' cent!

or six bits, and a couple of dimes as we used to count behind the local soda shop.

C. is the answer

Damn, I'm first up to bat at one of your questions, and I don't know.
Guessing it ended sometime around the 1700's.
B) 1730.
Went on for awhile, but don't recall hearing about it along with the Revolutionary War.

My son is a history buff and would know, but I'm not going to wake him up. Hahaha

....

Some would say were still fighting them.

IIRC Jefferson fought the Barbary Pirates whilst he was president.

Jimbo took 1801 which is along the lines of his Presidency.

Ill choose 1776....C

Which is what we all know as independance from the Pirate King of England.

1911 is the obvious answer. I'm going with the Sig 226. Also used by the Navy.
