[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 915142, member: 112"]A little trick for you when using a search engine for info about coins. First of all only use the Advanced Search function. Only use the line that says - [I]this exact wording or phrase: [/I]. And make sure that the very first thing you put on that line is this one word - coins. Then hit the enter key. Then when the new page pops up, before you do anything else, drop clear to the bottom of that page and click on - [I]Search Within Results[/I]. When the new page opens you will get a single dialogue box. In that box type in the one word that you want to search for. If you wish to use more than 1 word, then be sure to put your phrase into quotes " " - both begining quote and ending quote must be there. Then hit the enter key. Probaly 80% of the time whatever you are searching for will be at the top of the page that opens. And almost certainly on the the first page. And I keep my number of results at 10 per page. This method has rarely failed me.[/QUOTE]
