Thanks for linking me up to this old thread again. I had forgotten about it. BTW, this is not the first bank you saw in NYC. I got it from a...
I think it was. LOL. Cheech can be rather colorful at times. ;) Well, someone with a name like @Fullbands must be a Merc enthusiast, so if your...
I didn’t say anything about your avatar being scary. I think someone else did. I just made that mention of the upper half of your face vaguely...
I personally don’t find the (non-crusty) circulated ones unattractive. Just different. They are what they are, to use a cliché.
Nice classic track. This one also applies (and is more from my generation). :headphone: [MEDIA] *Hmm. This one stands up just fine as a rock...
Leaf blower.
Thanks for the deep dive on that.
True. If they were even both men at all. “E. Nicholson” remains an enigma so far.
They do have a Coin Tags, Swaps & Giveaways forum on CU, though like this one, it is not always terribly active. I like to include the CU people...

It’s possible. Later Victorian cemeteries (at least here in the cooler regions of the US, and parts of Europe) often had receiving vaults to...
August, 2021 update: sorry for the crazy-long-belated reply, as I just wandered back here to revisit this. It seems they must have spiked my...
See, this is what is so cool about love tokens with full names engraved on them. How many times have you held an old coin from your collection...
Well done! You confirmed my hunch that he was British (which wasn’t all that hard to come up with). I struck out on findagrave.com.
Yes, it’s too light to be a 1/2 speciedaler. The 1/3 speciedaler does seem to be a more likely candidate.
For what it’s worth, I do think the entire engraving present was done at the same time, likely not long after January of 1831 when E. Nicholson...
Their European submission center is in Paris, if you choose to go that route.
It almost seems as though room was deliberately left at the bottom for another row to be potentially added in the future, doesn’t it? And that...
Separate names with a comma.
