Oh, it's certainly proof of something, all right.
I had to do a double-take on that fourth photo. "A ladyslipper? In a pot?" But I certainly don't know my orchids, so I'm guessing it's just a...
You can get a "flat clinch" stapler. It flattens the staple as part of the process. Still not 100% mistake-proof, but a lot safer for coins. I've...
[ATTACH] She knows exactly what she's doing. Buying in quantity, she may not have paid more than a buck or two for each one.
Twelve years on, and still waiting. A "cheap government" dollar still buys most of what it did in 2009. How's that alternate REAL MONEY doing now?
Oh, you want a paper detector. THAT would be hours of fun. :rolleyes:
And the seller counts on people "not getting around to" following up on things like this. But for $600, it's certainly worth the effort. This is...

Is the question whether it's genuine?
It's the special "Lunar Commemorative Issue"!
Finds like that are almost enough to make me want to spend the rest of my life standing behind a cash register!
A "post pictures" thread has been going on for over 200 pages. CoinTalk broke the part of their system that shows external images. Lots of posts...
Possibly. I haven't kept up with all the comings and goings in the image-hosting space, but it seemed like Imgur was one of the more drama-free...
