I love Swiss 2 Franc coins...
...great! Now I'm hungry...
I wonder...
...and only because that "science" is quite often paid for by the companies who are trying to sell the product. I have intimate knowledge of an...

I use one of these: [ATTACH] Measures 48" x 12" x 12"h. 6,912 cu. in. capacity. Weighs a substantial 62 lbs. Original government cost new...
