Gary Burke Rest in Peace United States 3730 Posts	Posted 02/11/2006 01:54 am I have a friend who owned his own jewelry store in town. One day a car with California plates drove up, and the occupants sold him about five pounds of silver dimes. He allowed me to sort out several of my birth year (1942), but didn't invite me to search any further. So, since I did get five or six coins, I guess I was semi-lucky. Report this Post to the Staff
