    Please clarify. image
    Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals.

    I agree.

    "why sell coins..."("..." is a break so the phrase could go on to the next link, but OMG I did it again), "...an"(holy crap- I forgot the "d"- these two errors are enough to confuse anyone- I should be banned- take away my HS Diploma, BA and report this to my 5th grade teacher), "ship them in the receipt and tape? "

    Don't you mean, "Maybe you should learn..." or "...you need to..." Einstein!

    I see you edited.

    I had no clue what you were asking either. Guess I'm illiterate.

    It seems the seller put as much effort into packaging the coin for shipment as the buyer did into communicating his thoughts.

    It may be a play on the old "slitted sheet" tongue twister. Say it 5 times very fast and it makes perfect sense.

    "I slit a sheet,
    A sheet I slit,
    Upon a slitted sheet I sit."

    At any rate, this thread is a nominee for a 2009 award of some sort...
