That lighting is really weird -- on the reverse, it looks like the eagle's figure is in relief to the field, even though the details appear...
Yeah, but I was asking after the ones in banks. Apparently they're often free of surcharges, and sometimes the bank personnel can open them to...
Looks like the first anything he ever sold. But he's been buying lots of cheap clads.
Hmm. I think of it more as "we're all victims of early-80's radio playlists". (searches around for the "doddering old greybeard" icon...)
ROTFL! I just noticed the serial number on the fake... :singing:
