<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Victor, post: 872489, member: 5454&quot;]Ok this one isn&#039;t about me or my coins.&nbsp; But it&#039;s a classic that everyone should hear if you never heard it already.</p><p>Seems in the old days workers in the mint used to smuggle coins home before all the modern day technology to catch stealing.&nbsp; They would slip a couple coins into their pockets, lunchbox, sock or shoe and walk out at closing time.</p><p>As things got tougher and supervisors got wiser the workers had to devise new ways to steal coins.&nbsp; In the summer heat sometimes windows were opened.&nbsp; They also had a rat problem and set traps for the rats. Well I heard this one:&nbsp; A worker used to take a dead rat and cut it open.&nbsp; He then slipped a $20 gold coin inside the rat and threw it out the window.&nbsp; After leaving work he would pick up the rat and continue walking down the street.&nbsp; You know the rest.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
