I always think I have more South American coins than I actually own. Mostly because I know a lot of people from that continent so the coins seems common. It turns I only have two coins from Chile.
This coin is much more silver color in hand but halogen lights and a lack of proper photo setup makes it look a bit yellow. Trust me it is more nickel than brass.

I found a penny in a quarter roll, which is odd. I also got a franc last night, I guess someone thought it was a dime.

A few days ago when I went to Publix I saw an ad for a Santa Dollar. It had a portrait of Santa instead of George Washington but everything else was normal. The ad said it is legal tender and and is being sold for $2.50. Do you know anything about this?

It's legal as long as it is a removable sticker.
As for collectors this is considered a no extra value novelty.
How come I never see any "P" pennies, they all have either no mintmark or only a "D"?

Tradition pre-1980 the mint never put P on any coin other than special issues.
After 1980 by law they had to the P to all coins except for pennies because the cost and trouble of adding it was not worth it.
