[QUOTE="H8_modern, post: 2750201, member: 28531"]I was working at a ladies house and told her that because my older daughter is named Victoria that I collected coins of Queen Victoria. A little while later she said she found something for me. They were from her mother but since she was Irish that she didn't have any fondness for the queen. She held up her hand and I could tell from the size that they were crowns. That's when I started getting excited. Then she said they were dirty so she cleaned them up for me:(.

When I saw the Brillo pad and Tarn-X, I decided she had to have done it before or I would cried. Any other tales of having your hopes raised and then dashed?[/QUOTE]
