Dearborn Moderator United States 95200 Posts	Posted 03/06/2023 7:20 pm I'm trying something new. I had this old and very roughly worn Eisenhower dollar. It was/is in rough shape, so I decided to try to guild it. (my VERY first attempt here - so don't laugh too loudly at my attempt) Yes, I gorilla glued a 12 gauge copper wire cut and shaped like a 'J' to it - why not? It is in tribute to our Moderator that manages to get a reply in every topic everyday (such dedication...) ok lets have it. I'm ready.... Collecting since 1972.
