<p>[QUOTE="doug444, post: 1665540, member: 38849"]My pawn shop experience in 1969 LOL. I reserved one day on my vacation in London to do nothing but go to pawn shops. I had eight cartons of Marlboros (from an Army PX) in a backpack. I ended up with a LOT of nice coins, especially Indian Head 1c for some reason. US cigarettes were highly taxed but still very popular, and readily saleable; they were probably gone in a day. US coins might have languished forever in some of those dark sleepy stinky pawn shops. And most of the proprietors reeked.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
