I've actually pulled a few good things from under snow/ patches of ice. But it's a pain.
Winter weekend scrounge. Pulled an 8 quarter spill near the end for a highlight. [ATTACH]
I don't think it's a 1980 strike. It's a 1999 strike, and instead of the 1999 SBA it has the characteristics of a 1980 SBA. If I read and...
These dimes are not plated. It is "clad" which is a sort of sandwich. There is an inner core of copper. The outer layers are an alloy of copper...
