I spent the last few days hanging out in Vegas visiting some good friends, one of whom just so happens to work in a coin store there. I spent a lot of time in the store while he was working, and learned a lot....especially how frustrating it would make me to work there.

Don't ask. </p><p> </p><p>Anyways, I was able to purchase some nice CBH's at dealer trade prices.
