<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SDPlayer, post: 308236, member: 11416&quot;]I just came back from the barbershop with a horror story to share.&nbsp; To set the scene: My barber, Jack, as a hobby, custom makes guitars in addition to playing them.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>During the normal bull session (old-fashion barbershop), the conversation came around to business, money and coins. Jack suddenly says that he had something to show me and pulled out a guitar pick that he had made. He said that it was silver that used to be a dime.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Not sure that I wanted an answer, I asked, &quot;What kind?&quot;, to which he replied, &quot;a 1916 Mercury&quot;. :rolling:&nbsp; He didn&#039;t know the mint mark. In his defense, he did say that it was the worst of the 40 - 50 mercs that he had; so worn out that the date could barely be read.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>He has promised that he will bring in the rest of them so that I can check them out. :smile He also promised that he would never ever make another coin pick again unless it was post 1964. :smile:smile</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So, does anyone else want to add a favorite story, good or bad?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
