Mint has established a new Department

BearBear Posts: 18,953 ✭✭✭
The department of malicious mischief. They deal with producing

milk spots, scratches, scrapes, luster breaks, poor packaging, dings

and pock marks on all mint products. Another proud service, brought to

you by your Federal Mint.
There once was a place called
Camelotimage

    C'mon, Bear.

    That would mean they were accomplishing something just the way they intended. I'm not buying that! image

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

    Is that also the department that chooses to use Fedex instead of their sister federal agency, the USPS?

    I used to respect FEDEX, but they blew off the delivery of my gold anniversary sets (tracking number said nobody home, but my wife was waiting for the package and there was no attempted delivery notice) and left my silver sets between the front door and a screen door which was wide open because the box of ten was way too big for the space, despite my note that told them to leave it with the neighbor or, if he wasn't home, on my patio.
