First, I heard of the guy, neat looking coins folks. Like the tones on that one JoJo.
I know huh? Spent alot of years to the north of you. The first 30 never S of San Jose. Most of my family still lives there. I have never bought a...
PMs are an easy way in, we can't make them get the history bug.
Pm's only show up when you are logged in. Alerts, updates to the threads you responded too. Don't turn those off.
Do you see the lines on the U? It says die deterioration, Die deterioration only happens in the striking process, It, doesn't happen in the die...

$267 huh, you put in a good fight for that one.
