That's a nice one! Careful, though . . . it's easy to get hooked on British coins (I speak from experience!).
Sounds like a good side project for a high school science teacher. I'm having visions of Walter White out in the desert cooking up a batch of...
Ye gads! To my eye, that coin is ruined. If that's AT, it should be a criminal offense.

I think Dangerfield is somewhat under-appreciated (compared to, say, a Lenny Bruce or a George Carlin, etc.). Rodney basically invented an entire...
Show me a store that sells only one item, and then stops selling. You're being either obstinate or nonsensical. Actually, it IS for sure that...
