<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 2174688, member: 27832&quot;]I&#039;ve been carrying an ASE around for a couple of years now, trying to wear it down to an interestingly low grade, but it&#039;s changed very little.</p><p><br /></p><p>Some weeks ago, I came across an Ike with some hard substance stuck to its obverse.
