I'm sure there are several other new issues that I'm not abreast of, many of which may already have their pet acronyms or abbreviations.
Good work, Dawg- keep it goin'. I thought of one or two additions the other day, but I've since forgotten 'em.
Anyone want to give us a hand here?

vomitorium toning - Self-explanatory
"Seu cabra da peste,
"Sou Mangueira......."
here is the list that i have been using, although i will now book mark this listing and submit the ones not listed on the list i use so i won't have to use 2 lists
<< <i>toilet bowl toning - Used to describe dark, unattractively toned coins.
vomitorium toning - Self-explanatory >>
would this type of toning be present only on the rims?
and the second sounds like the cause of the first.
I heard this one and almost thought somebody was referring to the Associated Press.
I gather it has something to do with bullion issues?
<< <i>Circle of Trust is not on the list. >>
That's because if you need it defined, then clearly you're not in it.

A hockey puck is 3" round and 1" thick and between 5.5 and 6 oz, pretty close to the silver puck, but a little thicker.
