Okay, tommy, that's what I thought you meant. Conder gave you a good explanation as to why that is a misconception.
I'm not sure what kind of album you are referring to, but many of them have to be pushed in. This requires your fingers contact the face of the...
It would be statistically impossible to have *exactly* the same pattern of lines from cleaning on two coins. You could have similar cleaning...
Is there a link to the pamphlet online somewhere? Or a transcript of his talk? Or a video?
I'm not sure what you are trying to say here? Could you explain what you mean? This doesn't sound like something that can happen, but I need to...
