Bought this early DCarr Maine state quarter parody, "Large Lobster on the Loose" today, 2003, on ebay with a $10 off coupon, figured why not. 81 struck in brass only.

    As a Mainah I like the coins with the lobstahs. Too bad that is about all that Maine is known for, though. High taxes, cold temperatures, low per capita income ...... and lobstahs. Ayuh.

    As our native son Jud Strunk used to say, "In Maine we make love and fish. And generally the lakes are frozen".

    JRocco, that's no lobster. image

    That's a shrimp .... or a crayfish .... or something, but definitely not a lobster.

    Can't figure out why Maine is so cold since it's south of Seattle. image

    Still prefer the Clinton parody quarters........

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.
