    I'm a bit late to the party, but perhaps the word "COMPROMISE" on a Missouri quarter, referring to the Missouri Compromise? I don't know if that's exactly on brand for the QuarterMaster, though.

    Just to keep you updated. No sign of the coins yet, however, the mail has been terrible taking 10-12 days for priority mail to be delivered.

    Yeah! I received the coins! Thank you, Quartermaster and Lord Marcovan!

    What a fun package to receive. Twelve Quartermaster quarters with coded messages to muse over plus a 1924 VG Buffalo nickel, and an elongated buffalo nickel from Lord Marcovan of Robertson Shinnick Manor. Great Fun!

    Yes, I understood that, that's why I said I'd lose. Rocks break scissors.

    Weren't ALL buffalo nickels found in circulation? Even uncirculated ones. I don't recall any treasury bags of buffalos being saved and then sold later to the public at a premium.

    Don't know. Good question. Should we ask the "elders", perhaps? biggrin.gif
