    This subject is borderline for this forum so mods, if ya think it don't belong here feel free to move it to another section.

    So what ya think guys? I'm sure you've all used a 2x2 for some purpose other than coins. If you have post a picture of it here.

    HOw about stamps? This weirdo at my local flea market has piles and piles of Nazi stamps in coin standard 2 by 2's.

    Wish I could man, but I haven't been there in a while... The one coin dealer there is a little pricey.

    Ken, your resourcefulness has inspired me. So, I found a good use for all my spare 2X2's; They make nifty holders for my finger collection!

    How about the first (and only) four leaf clover I found?

    I didn't take a picture of the reverse because it's dark now, but the natural toning is awesome and my pic wouldn't do it justice. On ebay it would qualify as "Monster".
    :p

    Yep, maybe I'll list it on ebay...MS69 Monster Toning! One-of-a-Kind! Reduced for quick sale!
    Think I'll get any bids?

    Those sure are some terrific uses for 2x2's fellows. Bonbon, I think you should get that toner stabbed and then consign it with Heritage. E-Bay is not the venue you want to sell such a valuable leaf. Guy? How many fingers does that make it now? I knew a fellow who had a large collection of those but he's been in jail for the last ten years.

    A friend of mine on another board has sent me shark teeth in 2x2s with the info and all. I have them stashed away but I thought it was a good idea for the smaller teeth.

    A friend of mine uses the Lighthouse 2x2 (self adhesive) flips to put his pills in that have to be taken that evening, when he goes out to dinner or to a social event.

    Lol. I still laugh when I remember the "protective covers" they sell to keep your slabs in. Nothing like making sure your plastic retains MS 65. I laugh, then I cry. :(

    Interesting idea, but with prescriptions is one that could potentially lead to legal trouble, at least in the (or some) states.
