I am completely at a loss for the poor farmers in NC and their marshmallow crop that was devastated this year...

These were supposed to have been struck and distributed at the 1909 Montreal ANA Convention. The obverse design is a exact facsimile of the 1835 Walsh's General Store Hard Times Token HT-216 / Low-99. Although still scarce they are more common in medals such as Brass, Copper, and Aluminum however only 3-5 had been issued in Silver. One of the Silver issues is in the ANS museum collection and another is in the Bank of Canada collection. Although this was purchased with an unknown provenance based on a plate match this is the Virgil Brand example described in the Bowers & Merena Brand sale as "Proof-64, Attractively Toned, Quite Rare"
figure an onion coin would fit nice in tribute
I get the "onion" parody, but I stared at the onion coin for about five minutes in amazement. That's pretty cool. Srsly. Onion coinage.
No solar here!

Here is another one from NC. Too many liberal gomers and goobers in that county.

Same bunch that insist the Earth is 5000 yrs old?

Reminds me of a NPR spoof where they claimed trees in the NE were exploding since they weren't being tapped anymore.....
you cannot even find them anymore... onion farming just made them unprofitable here
in the states. They were really good onions though... Cheers, RickO
