    With a denomination of 1/000, it's also arguably my highest denomination coin.

    My math is awry today. 1/000 is equivalent to infinity, am i right?

    I would call it your lowest denomitation coin as 1/0 =0 at least that's what I remembered from high school math

    I'm sorry, you both have flunked and must retake 8th grade math.

    1/0 is undefined

    My parents were unconventional...I was 7 years old when they lost faith in the public & private school systems and started homeschooling. It was great because my extra curricular reading material include the Red Book, Gray Sheet & Antique Trader magazine.
