This, always, even with raw coins that look pristine and uncirculated. One has no way of knowing how and where they were stored, what they might...
I'm fortunate to live in the 3rd safest city in America with a population over 100,000. By all means, I take reasonable precautions, but the...
Must be a rather small pocket of ghetto, because once you get east of the I-75 corridor, you're into a lot of upscale suburbs. I-75 follows the...
Is Greenhills the little northwest 'burb out by Winton Woods Golf Course? I lived in Cincinnati for 15 years, but on the east and northeast sides,...
