    I like the "No more scarlet fever or small pox" line. Today, we're waiting for the no more coronavirus line.

    Great post. I appreciate the part about the Bodie stage line (been to Bodie ghost town?). Feel sorry for the horses!

    Thanks for the article...Something about the CC mint mark that captures collectors - especially me....Add those letters to a gold coin and 'voila'...coin magic. ;) Cheers, RickO

    I was at the mint on Thursday night for a Carson City error coin presentation. It was interesting. Allan Rowe brought over about a dozen errors, described them, and then allowed those present to view them up close. Really cool event as part of the mint 150 celebration.

    I like the last sentence in the 140 years ago story, has a Samuel Clemens vibe to it.

    Cussing the horses has always been a problem! ;)B)
