Well said Ken, you just get better with age...well, that's what they tell me anyway. :eek: Bruce
Hope you didn't get any of that gorilla snot on the note Steve...could make it toxic.:D That's too funny. I don't have any great stories like...
Good to have you here turnabuck. Idler issued so many different types of tokens that it's hard to tell exactly which one this is without clearer...
The scanner looks much better Alex. I usually get good results scanning coins with the exception of counterstamps. I always photograph...
Man dwhiz, that's one pretty Buffalo! You obviously have good taste in coins, but what's with the Phillies "thingy." :D Bruce

They're some beautiful medals Mark. Siggi was very good to you. Although I love most of the Icelandic issues you've shown us, you haven't turned...
Can you post pictures of them Susan? I've never heard of TruGrade, but maybe someone else has. From your description they sound good. Bruce
