    That is one sweet Ike. See given enough time even an Ike can start to look old image

    I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom I provide, then question the manner in which I provide it. I prefer you said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand to post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to!

    It's pretty but I don't know if I'd call it crusty.

    Nice one, but thirty-three years old is still too thin skinned to be crusty.

    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.



    The name is LEE!

    Several weeks ago I bought a huge collection and this was part of it. The guy this stuff came from was a heavy smoker (every album I open almost knocks me out). He was a coal miner in WV, and a gunsmith on top of that. A lot of his coins have some really odd toning.
