CoinHI Pillar of the Community United States 2734 Posts	Posted 03/01/2020 12:00 pm Thanks for the responses. After reading a post by Coop last year I'm a little more skeptical it is a gouge as these would be more in the field than next to devices. See here:http://goccf.com/t/353014 I just noticed there are four of these pieces as well. "Pride is yoked with callous behavior, as humility is with compassion."
