    Russ, you seem to be getting screwed alot lately - is there something in the water out there in Washington? - Has someone polluted Puget sound or somethin'? or did Mt St Helen burp and spew a little sulpher dioxide into the atmosphere? image

    I think there is evidence that the coin was touched by the edge of a condom, I mean coin

    In my opinion, very questionable. Depends on what you paid for it.

    You are showing a lot of interest in Morgan's lately Russ. What area are you interested in? Toned pieces, high grade, DMPL, cameo ???
    Some coins are just plain "Interesting"

    I believe it was envelope toned and that the envelope was soaked in liquid sulphur and then lit on fire image


    Keep getting the Morgan's though.......I like the Morgan's more than the JFKs image

    Russ, in order to alleviate your anguish, I'll be happy to take it off your hands. I think it's real purdy, no matter how it got that way.

    Considering I once got such a great deal from you on the bay of E, I feel like I owe you one. image

    I'd consider relieving you of your pain........depending image
    "Lenin is certainly right. There is no subtler or more severe means of overturning the existing basis of society(destroy capitalism) than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and it does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose."
