    Wow. Awesome Find man. Congrats on the Merc! That's a nice Thousand Bucks!

    Holy Cow...you could trade that for a Colt AR-15...LOL.

    Am I seeing things? That nickel appears to be cut in half?

    Griff, that is a squirting nickel, squeeze it while underwater to fill it, look at the reverse side where the pinhole is in the word "of" and prepare to get an eyeful......NGE
