They're tiny Greek coins.. under .2 grams. I like them because they fit my budget and I own a magnifying glass. I've never seen any like what...

Well, inspirational message board posting HAS always been a hobby of mine.
Thanks Ken--this was really useful. Elmer's glue would have seemed like a blunt instrument, but I guess that has more to do with the big hole in...
