LOL, very nice man!! I like that obverse, the designer was pretty imaginative IMHO when he designed it, but that Phoenix looks like a chicken?? (Check the rim to make sure it's not a cast counterfeit, I want to have that peace of mind so I can be extremely happy for you.)

Hey stainless, get out of the house. Go to the movies or something, you have way to much time on your hands.
