When you said Tesla, I thought you were talking about Nikola Tesla. I thought it was amazing that there was a poster of him (and possibly his coil).  |

What a great story. I've been trying to get my son into coins for a long time. Now I have some ammunition.

Thai, you know that makes sense.... there are 7 billion people on the planet.. so if she is 1 in a billion that would mean there are 7 suitable mates.. therefore she is EXACTLY LIKE A 1933 BRITISH PENNY. Only seven are known to exist :)btw, I dont collect banknotes but THAT IS AN AWESOME NOTE! I need to get one of those!
Indiangold, my granddad and dad coaxed me into them for a LONG time, so thankful they didnt give up :) although the promise of a beautiful lass never came into it...

That is awesome for you, R-Dawkins! I had a girlfriend a few years ago that was really into my roll searching. It was back when I was going through primarily nickels. She would get so excited when she'd come across the occasional Buffalo or Warnickel. She knew how to look at the opened roll from the sides of the coins and pick out the silver nickels just from the color. Unfortunately for non-numismatic reasons things did not work out but for a few months I was in coin Nirvana. My current g/f is definitely a keeper, but has little to no interest in coins. Can't have it all, I guess. |

@copper, yep, cant really have it all. It's too early to tell but I'm hoping the non-numismatic issues will be minimal.
Thanks Double
