Yup. Sort of like my last experience -- seller listed six or eight gold coins, then sent empty envelopes to each buyer. Even though other buyers...
That scale of "child's play" requires some extremely pricey toys. Scanners with resolution fine enough to pick up small coin details aren't...
If that made the box a little heavier, I hope the bank has a forklift... ;)
Just came across this, for some reason I no longer get notified about updates to this thread. I think you've hit the nail on the head here. One...
I'm guessing this "legal tender" note was a $100 or $50 bill. Merchants have a problem retaining enough change if they accept them, not to mention...
