    Ah, corpus delicti - a crime has been committed, or has it? :rolleyes:

    I predict the potential victim of a crime shall actually show up in the mail today, so you are Ner(o) to having it in hand. You should be prow"d" to own it! :D

    Happy ending. The coin just arrived in my mailbox-it was registered but I guess the post office is waiving the signature.
