Geez. Yup. I'm with you there. (PS- I didn't even know what "archive.org" was until you mentioned it, and I took a peek just now. And me the...
True. Maybe I don't need to feel so bewildered by the information overload and all the minutiae, either. I mean, it's always good to know (and...

Sweet n' crusty CircCam that did its job in commerce!
That's a lovely 1847 dollar, @ksparrow. Here is a gold CircCam I just won in a Spanish auction (Soler y Llach). I already have a half-escudo...

I know the kind you're talking about. Wouldn't have thought of squishing them. Cool idea. My friends and I had to resort to the plastic...
No, you're a winner, regardless. Our past dealings are such that you should have already been on the short list of people who got a free set up...
If you don't win a set in the drawings, remind me. You get a free set no matter what. ;)
Wow, that's crazy! Quite an interesting first find. My first dug coin was a 1944 Mexican 5-centavo piece. I later found out that Mexican...
