Has anyone heard of a screaming eagle quarter ?

Airborne...
Sorry if I overstepped a bit. Your patch was collected by me as a kid that's why I thought of this reference.

My daughter who works at a local store after school, somtimes gives me coins to keep me busy.
The other day she gave me this quarter so I put it under the camera, tilted it , played with the lighting, OK,
I put it through the ringer as best as I could. Then I noticed this...

    The first thing that came to mind when I read the thread title was Screaming Eagle wine!

    @Zoins..... OK... Just checked it out.... The 2018 vintage (now sold out) Cabernet went for $2895.... Now I understand why I have not tried it. ;) Cheers, RickO

    Think of it like drinking gold ;)

  • rickoricko Posts: 98,724 ✭✭✭✭✭

    @Zoins.... Actually, yes....Though at some point, I may exchange a large gold for a bottle of that wine.... ;) Cheers, RickO

    Well, you have to give the OP credit for being our longest running troll.

    Yep, but all the other trolls are much more entertaining and can form a complete sentence. ;)

    You may be able to get a Screaming Eagle half (bottle), but not a quarter. B)

    I spent 8 years at Ft Campbell (home of the 101st) but I was in a different non-affiliated unit. There was a big billboard at the main gate and if we would go 101 days without a Soldier dying we would get a post sponsored 4 day weekend. We didn’t get many.

    Think about that we talk about these men

    OK, now I'm getting worried, I actually saw what the green one was attempting to show! A big mouth screaming eagle! LOL!

    Congratulations! Now put down the bottle and step away from the bar.

    That may be the problem - haven't had a drink since last weekend!

    I’m so very fortunate to have been on the mailing list of Screaming Eagle (wine) for 20 years, and I get allocated one three bottle box each year, as shown by @Zoins above.

    Earlier this year I first learned about LimitedMintage and the absolutely gorgeous Silver rounds they make at very fair pricing. I bought the below 2 ounce round (39mm, like the size of a Morgan Dollar, but this is about 1/4” thick), currently selling for $62. So now when we open a bottle of Screaming Eagle, we place this 2 ounce round right next to the bottle:

    Nicks on bones may confuse my tones,
    but in a game of zones I'll drop it as I see your puppet's are unarmed.

    Now get back to work !
