    It's OK. Seems a little slow anyway. Half of my co-workers are big on Cigars. Whenever we travel to asia the first thing they do is find the nearest cigar shop. There is a nice one in Taipei 101.

    Let's make this thread coin related. I remember reading that one technique for retoning copper that has been dipped is to blow cigar smoke onto the coin to give it a natural brown color. This technique can be uncovered by smelling the coin. Has anyone here tried this technique and how well does it work?

    Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

    A re-wrapped COHIBA is bogus---like a counterfeit coin----stay far far away. Now give me a nice RASS or RASCC........hmmmmmm
    Some coins are just plain "Interesting"

    "Hazing" a coin with smoke has been identified as one of the tools in a coin doctors' kit... Supposed to hide minor hairlines. I see this as a throwback to the 30's and 40's, a buncha guys sitting around a dingy back room , tryin' to find an angle and make an extra nickel...

    I say the Gran Riserva... Better a widget than a counterfeit image

    That is 100 % NOT TRUE. Possession of Cuban Cigars is perfectly fine---Purchase of Cuban Cigars in the U.S. is a no no.
