Point taken Yak. I admit I was grumpy this morning, I have been sick. My apologies to you Peace and anyone else offended by my posts this morning. :o
Cool pickup. Scorpion isn't the easiest to find. My main ones I have are Hepthalite countermarks.
Fair enough. You aren't talking about me, but I admit I said if 2013 is even lower mintages these would crash. It appears 2013 will be higher than...
