    Not exactly ancient but 2700 of my friends and I will be happy to have a Harold II and William so that number will hardly dent the market even if the government releases them for sale. I just hope they don't decide to display the pile in the BM as they are apt to do.

    Good Lord, with the size of that coil, I'll bet she gets some serious backaches swinging it around the fields all day! I have one not quite that big that was quite the backbreaker.

    Appears to have been worth it in their case, though.

    I noticed on TV show "Australian Gold Diggers",
    they have similar sized coils and the users have them strapped to harnesses and they just swing from side to side.

    With the money she is about to make I'm sure she will be able to afford some massages.
