You can also see a Franklin in there (which was still being minted when this episode came out). The episode was called "A Penny for Your Thoughts"...
Thanks for the trivia- I had to see it for myself...pretty cool. [ATTACH]
I like those caps albums. Whitman serves the purpose for my circulated quarters but those caps albums would be nice for more valuable and/or high...
That's quite an impressive list! Highlight is the lot of 500 steel Lincolns, for sure.
It's clear to me the OP rolled over his 401(k) into one of Lear's infamous Silver IRA's. They put his retirement cash into Canadian bullion (Snowy...
