Hey Billy. That 1 øre is hilarious looking! All the time I've been looking at coins, and your profile is the only place I've ever seen one. I like...
I think they're tokens given out at gas stations in '70s. The gas station was probably Shell or Esso.
Nice coins, guys. I like how all the faces look different for each issue. I never knew that before. I just thought they were like the Maria...
You've got a nice collection brewing. The only cash I have is a very common Ching dynasty that I got somewhere for 50¢ thinking it was a copy....
No, I don't consider it rare, but I do consider it a legitimate collectible coin. The 3-legger is a legitimate collectible coin, but at the price...

I have some rainbow toned 1971 Kennedys fresh from the oven-I mean bank roll. For you, $60 each, but you have to act now.
The "3-legged" buffalo nickel is the second biggest scam in coin collecting. It's a $2 variety that people pay $2,000 for. There are numerous...
:bigeyes:
My mind went right to something else, until I realized you were talking about computers.
You should be getting plenty of snow in Eire (did I spell that right?).
By the way, welcome back!
Less-than-clever? I suppose we should all be charitable in this holiday season.
I think it was some bizarre joke anyway. Or a scam. Not to mention it was really stupid. I mean, everyone hates going to the in-law's house for an...
