Mainly I wan't to see pictures. Was a prototype ever made?? Many questions! I searched the web and CT but found nothing.

It's been several years since CONECA had this done and they occasionally show up on ebay. __________________ My collection (part of it anyway)http://www.omnicoin.com/user_view.aspx?id=Nickelman "IN GOD WE TRUST" Escapee from the Peoples Republic of Massachusetts!   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk?
