I only started photographing them in the last decade, but I suspect many or most would come back questionable color ( one of my 3-leg buffaloes did that ), and I don&#039;t blame the TPG for doing so, as they have to back them financially. Books on coin chemistry are quite lacking, and when Thad completes his, I think it will become popular among collectors. He has neat tools ( toys) to work with.</span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">Jim</span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p><p>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
