Jbuck, either you have a fantastic memory or some secret key to every post ever made. Amazing how you find all those old posts about items.
I have trouble trying to remember where I went yesterday.

I have trouble trying to remember where I went yesterday. You were going to transfer your collection to me yesterday. I wondered why you did not show up.  I might as well show my oldest coin... quite young compared to the others posted...   |
