But they consume a lot of money for maintenance and fuel that could instead be building the Cat Hoard! I'm sure V8s won't disappear. After all,...
You're probably right, but I'm still hanging on to a few "how to do things from the ground up" books in case online info gets destroyed or...
Or you could pick up coins wherever you can find them, and then put them all in your driveway and run your car back and forth over them a few...
I saw Larry Briggs at the big Raleigh regional show in... 2019? It was still a going concern at that point, and I haven't heard anything here...
Okay, if I'm being invited to tell old-guy stories, I'm sure not going to refuse. :rolleyes: I started collecting as a small child in the late...

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...
