Tough wildcard this month... lots of good stuff.
Has anyone tried to look her up and see what became of her?

Dockwalliper finding a '55 Doubled Die (even a Poor Man's variety) is pretty darn amazing, too. That really deserved to win.
But it was a wild month of wildcards, apparently.
<< <i>pretty awesome eyes guys....nice wildcard finds this mos....can someone please explain the 55 "poor mans" dd cent to me? what does poorman mean?......thanks....hh >>
As you can see in my picture there is a bit of doubling on the last 5. If you look on eBay for a poor mans Double Die you can pick one up for under $5. The "Real" 1955 DD will run you about $1000. It looks like this.....

<< <i>TTT - Do I win? >>
Yes! Congrats!
I'll have your sigline award in a day or two.
There was some cool stuff here this month.
Like I said, so many good finds I couldn't even vote for my own. I voted for the docs since it is rare to find a cache of old documents in such good condition basically just laying around. Those old houses have usually been picked over by ever kid within 5 miles after this amount of time.
Great finds everyone. This was my first noteworthy contribution to any of the polls, and I'm glad that you guys liked it!
Thanks again!
