    I voted "To make my mother mad" image

    Which is not actually true. What makes my mother mad is that I travel as part of my job. She thinks that it is terrible that they make me go to other countries. She cannot comprehend that I actually enjoy it. (I think my wife secretly enjoys it also image )

    I chose "other". I wanted to have a one from every country collection. I guess I just don't know any better.

    It is. And the good thing is it doesn't matter too much what condition the coins are in, within reason.

    You know i don't remember what happened to that one, i dunno if i sold it someone or whether i binned it! It might still be lying around somewhere, i had a whole load of em somewhere. Put it this way when you touched them you got the urge to wash your hands. Smelt awful.

    Probably been dropped in nitric acid or something!

    I voted other. This sums it up my reasons pretty well:




    The Road Not Taken

    Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
    And sorry I could not travel both
    And be one traveller, long I stood
    And looked down one as far as I could.
    To where it bent in the undergrowth,
    Then took the other, as just as fair,
    And having perhaps the better claim,
    Because it was grassy and wanted wear,
    Though as for that, the passing there
    Had worn them really about the same,

    And both that morning equally lay
    In leaves no step had trodden black.
    Oh, I kept the first for another day!
    Yet knowing how way leads on to way
    I doubted if I should ever come back.

    I shall be telling this with a sigh
    Somewhere ages and ages hence:
    Two roads diverged in a wood, and I --
    I took the one less travelled by,
    And that has made all the difference.

    Dipped doesn't matter if you only want to fill in a blank.

    i think in the case of those specimens blank was the word... i would even use that one as a filler.
