    Ye Olde Dead Kinge is collecting Froggie coins.

    Somewhere there are rivers flowing backward, skies blackened by plagues of locusts, falling, and three-headed calves being born.

    I took the photo before the coin was embalmed and placed in it's coffin by the Numismatic Funeral Home of Dublin, Ohio.
