    A tortured pun for sure, right on the edge of horrible. image

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

    I have found power in the mysteries of thought.

    It is always a question of knowing and seeing, and not that of believing.

    Our virtues, and our failings are inseparable, like force, and matter. When they separate, man is no more.

    KOOL !!!
  • I was on the star trek enterprise when we became stranded on a unknown planet.
    Scotty said the dilithium crystals were no good, and we are stuck here, unless we find some crystals.
    The scouting party located a unknown carbon based unit, and asked for his help.
    The entity said he would be glad to help any way he could, and said his father was a collector.
    Captain kirk, Bones, and Spok went to talk to him,, they were surprised to see so much treasure, and coin he had.
    Kirk asked, we need dilithium crystals can you help, the father replied no.
    Bones said for the love of Pete why not?
    The man said, because my wife is the collector, not me. Kirk did not understand, and said your not a dilithium crystal collector?
    The man replied I collect coins from all parts of the galaxy. Spok replied, illogical the federation hasn't used
    currency for more than 2000 years. The man replied I know, but its the only way I can get my wife to even look at my unit.
    Then he asked for some spare change.

    (Fascinating) Spok took a collection, because he understood what the man was saying, and said OH your wife is o-whora.
