    Thank you @Deacon Ray. This storm could have been much worse except that the All-father was looking after us.

    Didrachmae have such a great "feel" for their weight and size. Roughly a Shekel, etc. Get one Chris!

    My wife won't let me get any coins for a while. I'm coin grounded.

    After some stumbling and fights with my wife, in recent years I have developed techniques to circumvent military control here at home. I have a secret credit card and I send the orders to my parents' house! Also, I have two PayPal accounts....until this moment, it's works!

    You guys are poor things ! :D

    For minor purchases I manage on my own. When it comes to big bucks we talk together, and she's always the one to say "come on, do it, we won't live twice" !

    She's a fairy, for sure !!!!
