<p>[QUOTE="TIF, post: 1783460, member: 56859"]Well OK then. Here's one with an anchor. Bought it by accident the other day. Was skyping with my mom while keeping an eye on an auction. The lot I wanted was coming up. Got distracted, looked back at the screen, thought it was on the block with 3 seconds to go, hit bid. Wrong coin. Two and a half seconds later I was the new owner of this coin, which I know nothing about.
