Stuck in Jury Selection, post an early coin for me.

Post something early federal.

asheland · January 3, 2023 12:06PM

This is getting boring.
I’ll start with my bust quarter.

The county I reside was founded in 1808, bonus points if it’s an 1808 coin!

marcmoish · January 3, 2023 12:09PM

Cool piece, I like it, guilty as charged!

My wife was picked today to serve on Grand Jury. It's a 6 week term.

That’s still a possibility for me. No news yet. Just waiting.

I have a couple friends who got picked for the grand jury and they were once a week for up to 2 years.

I was once a foreman on a federal jury. Serious stuff and very memorable. GL. Here's my old lady:

Wonder if the perp was caught stealing coins from USPS... tell her to hang him!

Just returned from the LCS, made a purchase at melt + $11 based on today's current price. No doubt had some cleaning on lower obverse but looks much nicer in hand... color and obverse. Excuse my lousy cellphone pictures.

Guess I could have paid closer attention to your original post, sorry.

I was called for federal jury duty once back around 1994. I was on call for two weeks but only had to go the court once. I made it as far as the courtroom but the jury was seated before my name was called so I was released and was back at work before 10AM that morning. I've been called twice for county jury duty but have never even left the jury waiting area before being released.

In my state Grand Jury members serve for one year and meet every month.

Tell the judge with a straight face that you believe in capital punishment for littering offenses. You'll be excused, and quickly.

Very easy to get out of being on a jury if you want to.......

@asheland Just tell them that you can spot a guilty person just "like that" while you snap your fingers. They'll send you home.

Here is an 1805 that I picked up right after the 1803/2. Funny how they both look like 1805's.

I need the $10 and the $2.50. Someday, I hope to find one of each that I can afford.

Jury duty ... hahahaha. The magic phrase to get out of a drug trial is "jury nullification." That said, I did get nailed for a week-long "determine the percentage of guilt for 4 defendants" in a civil case. Talk about hurry up and wait. I was the foreperson, so I made certain that our percentages added precisely to 100%. I'm not sure that some of my fellow jurors could have done the same.

Anyway, here is another colonial to help you pass the time. A Chalmers threepence:
