    "My friends who see my collection sometimes ask what something costs. I tell them and they are in awe at my stupidity." (Baccaruda, 12/03).I find it hard to believe that he (Trump) rushed to some hotel to meet girls of loose morals, although ours are undoubtedly the best in the world. (Putin 1/17) Gone but not forgotten. IGWT, Speedy, Bear, BigE, HokieFore, John Burns, Russ, TahoeDale, Dahlonega, Astrorat, Stewart Blay, Oldhoopster, Broadstruck, Ricko, Big Moose, Cardinal.

    Nice choices Shylock but not really being an Indian cent specialist I think I would have missed finding that subtle overdate on that 1888/7 had you not posted a closeup image of it. Thanks and I had better start checking some of my old Injuns. image
    A thing of beauty is a joy for ever
