The United States (Our leaders) makes lots of mistakes. We have a wide-open southern border. We send too many jobs and businesses overseas. We are spending money like a drunken sailor. And we try to be policeman for the world.
Even so, we are the greatest country in the world. I'm proud of our history, and wouldn't want to live anywhere else.
Happy Fourth of July to all my fellow citizens, as well as our neighbors throughout the world.
:D :D :D :D :) :) :) :)

Happy 4th of July Gary! 8)

Happy 4th! Two of my favorite days are the 4th and thanksgiving. Because they are simply American holidays which all Americans can share regardless of our religion or politics. Have fun and be safe folks.

Happy Fourth Nighthawk!!

Sorry to beat an old horse, but did you ever get that mystery coin imaged? ;D
-
Daughter was here yesterday with connection wires in her pocket, all set to scan and post the coin.
Spent most of the evening trying to fix an appliance for my wife. Since my granddaughter has a swim meet today, they needed to go home early.
The mystery coin remains lying on my desk, staring up at me as I post this.
Maybe soon the mystery will be solved.
:) :) :) :)
-
......or maybe it shall always remain a mystery? Like Amelia Earhart, or the colonists at Roanoke? Haha! ;D
-
Japanese got Amelia.
Indians got the colonists.
Mystery coin? We'll figure it out eventually.
:) :) :) :)

Well C C, looks like you won your bet......90 days and a no show (Since April 11 th). I'm really happy for you.....'I'll bet you xxxx that I can string these guys along for 90 day without showing the coin." You did it!!! Now we don't have to know who bet you, but how much did you win?
-
I think I heard that a 1923 Australian halfpenny was mentioned somewhere in the preamble. might be wrong.

When you guys finally see this wierd coin, the wait will have been worth it.
My daughter would have attempted to post it last night, but was too busy with fireworks for the kids.
If she gets off work at the hospital early enough, we may give it a shot tonight.
The coin continues to lie on my desk, looking up at me. Slightly smaller than a Presidential dollar, more thin, possibly a hammered coin/token, copper in color, language unknown.
Maybe inconsequencial. Maybe a real find. Maybe the truth will be known tonight.
:) :) :) :)

"MAYBE" -----Another bet going for 120 days? You can do it C C, go for it!
-
Goose, Goose, Goose!!
I'm sorry you see a hoax in the Mystery Coin saga.
The coin/token looks very old, and I want an answer to the mystery more than anyone.
Daughter works until midnight tonight, but will come by to try and scan the coin if she gets off early.
:) :) :) :)

C C, I'm really a nice guy.....I was just kidding you as I kid others now and then. A little jocularity on this forum is good.
-
Goose, I know you were kidding.
Kidding among friends is one thing that makes this a great forum.
Life's too short not to have fun.
One day I WILL get that coin posted!!
:D :D :D :D
-
"One day" = 1-1-11, oh well, I can waite.....just 542 days away.
-
Try putting a stamp on it and putting it in a mail box. ;D ;D ;D
regards.
