I see there are various uploads of it on YouTube but can't seem to find anything before Episode 6 that isn't "blocked in this country" for...
Some pills could crack you up, I suppose. After I had surgery last summer, I was high as a kite from the anesthesia (shots, not pills), and went...
As @Paddy54 indicated, a 1934 Jefferson nickel would be something of an anomaly- impossible without a time machine, since the first Jefferson...

Wow, I love that seemingly broad flan with the perfect centering! Nice half-horse, too! Better features on his head and mane, and he's not...
Many thanks to my personal graphics guru, @Deacon Ray, for "shadowboxing" the pictures. (Obviously there is no sense of scale in these, but...
@dwhiz- So you bought it after all!!! (?) Yay! :D WTG! I agree that you got a good price. That's a sweet piece and I'd have given it a whirl...
As it happens, my poll was a sham, and full of more than the usual nonsense this time. ;) I had already bought BOTH coins before I posted all...
