huh? ... yah, I'm always kinda surprised when a person doesn't have another B-side coin collection (most dudes start collecting coins from their home-country and then branch-out) ... Ooowww!! ... man, I am a total fan of those metal-detecting Guilders of yours!! (yah, I am jealous that I can't go try and find a few in my back yard) ... bear poop is all that I will find if I go searching!! (ummm, anybody wanna buy some bear poop?) ... thanks Oki ... Fantastic Hadrian collection (top-drawer => keep-up the awesome work, my coin-friend)
