coindexter Pillar of the Community United States 869 Posts	Posted 09/09/2010 4:13 pm OK I have been looking googling everywhere for these on the net. They say World mint of California at Bakersfield. Is that now the Franklin mint? I can't find anymore of these anywhere. Oh I did find some in silver and some made in copper but no pewter. Anyone know anything about them. I bet Ken Potter does.

Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16830 Posts	Posted 09/18/2010 03:22 am Dunno. Maybe they were hoping people would read as far as "ONE OUNCE" and not notice the "SOLID PEWTER" line. Or maybe they were trying to corner the market in pewter. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C.

I admit it was usually people my age that were talking about it or someone in my friends family but still remember it because I had some pewter figurines of dragons and wizards and everyone going crazy over them because they were pewter Report this Post to the Staff
