But since bullion posts are unwelcome, it must have been a piano.

    Pianos are WAY more expensive than $600... we got my dad a baby grand when we moved to Baltimore just under two years ago... NOT $600

    Maybe a YELLOW piano. Or a USED one. It was something though. Perhaps it was a Yugo.

    Man, I hope it wasn't my wife and kids! I'm kinda glad I bought some of that yellow Yugo when it was 340 for 1/16th of a pound.

    Pcgs is still pricing my World Series hoard of 1906 $20 gold coins in MS-60 at $600 each!!!!

    I have 55 of them in my World Series Trading account and yet PCGS prices the AU ones of the 1906 $20 year at $780!!!

    Would you believe???????????

    Maybe PCGS is waiting until after I finish my tax season to reward me with market prices???

    Now THIS is NOT a gold bullion post!!! image

    Yes, that is the equivalent $$ amount grading fees needed to get the grades right the first time around on a batch of 5 coins.

    Brunhilda is just clearing her throat.

    2007 ----------> 1980 plus, with no 1981 model to follow.
    "Lenin is certainly right. There is no subtler or more severe means of overturning the existing basis of society(destroy capitalism) than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and it does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose."
    John Marnard Keynes, The Economic Consequences of the Peace, 1920, page 235ff
