    Among the items found in the Unabomber's infamous Montana cabin
    was a one ounce silver bullion coin or "round".
    Since Theodore Kacynski was not a coin collector, the silver must
    have been used for some other purpose.

    Although only one side of the Unabomber's coin shows in the picture,
    and there are several silver bullion coins with the "Trade Unit" and
    scales design, the one that is below might be it.

    they should just let everyone out of prison!

    i really do wonder why he had this??

    i don't know much about this guy. was he a thief or "thug"? maybe he could have robbed a house and got this...

    let me rephrase that last part...i obviously know what he did, but don't know much about his past..
