What is Tom saying, or is he just blowing smoke?

Starting last summer, in order to better play "Follow the Lead Picture" post, I began to try and fill in date "holes" in my run of US coinage from 1794 - 2017. (Note, this just means, at a minimum, to try and have at least one coin from each date). Needless to say it's still VERY much a work in progress for the earlier years. Here's a Jefferson I picked up last summer to fill in a date hole.

So, what is Tom saying, or is he just blowing smoke?

The images are by Bob Campbell, and I think he did an excellent job.

Well, he did raise hemp, but not the kind that would be rewarding to smoke...

I think he supported medical marijuana.

He was too busy with his slave girls.

 

That there is one handsome Jefferson

 

Great coin, great photo. Nice to see full steps without hits.

I can't recall the exact verbiage , but something like " distinctive, natural, rare snowflake breath toning! One of a kind !!( we think)

 

Correct me if I am wrong, but don't all proofs have full steps?

 

Modern proofs do....some of the older dates were supposed to but depending on the rev. Die that could go one way or another .

 

Nice nickel.

 

I think Tom lives in Minnesota. I see my breath that way very often.

Anyone still have the Big Bambu album with the original paper intact?
