<p>[QUOTE=&quot;adelv_unegv, post: 282692, member: 7247&quot;]I feel guilty, being so brutal in my honesty, so I thought I&#039;d come back and post some more.&nbsp; </p><p>When I was three I remember a man nick-named &quot;Dirty Harry&quot; (with no relationship to the titular character played by Clint Eastwood) playing a magicians trick with a (machined) silver dollar and a dime.&nbsp; He would swirl both around in a skillet while talking and then there would only be the dollar.&nbsp; As I recall -- and I have a very poor memory - and I was only 3 at the time -- his story was about inflation eating the dime.&nbsp; Then he would swirl the skillet again (in the opposite direction, I believe) and there would be both the dime and the dollar again.&nbsp; A magicians trick.&nbsp; Used as an analogy.</p><p><br /></p><p>The point is, it&#039;s hard to tell from the picture of the coin, just what the purpose of the machining was.&nbsp; It is only obvious that someone took the time and trouble to machine it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry.&nbsp; No offense intended.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
