LOL Rog!

Bill, hadn't thought about the auction end, sorry 'bout that but, you gave me a good idea (I think!).

This is a "Crazy Trade" auction so why not make it ABSOLUTELY crazy?!

BillF decides when this auction ends! If Bill doesn't mind playing along, this Crazy Trade is his decision. When he sees a trade that he deems worthwhile, I will empower him to drop the hammer on my behalf. I will honor Bill's decision regardless of the result. Even if it's two kernels of Indian Corn paired with a four fingered back scratcher.

To keep this Crazy Trade honest, I will send Bill the same trade offer just for his participation so that he hopefully doesn't have a friend bid a worm casting from 1916!

For the PM/email bidders....if Bill is willing to participate, it is only fair that I forward your offer to him but I assure you that your identity will not be revealed, only your offer.

Bill?!

I would be happy to, but seeing I have a few old coins and always looking for more I'm interested in bidding. Now it wouldn't be right to pick myself, so Jamie, I'm going to decline. Tonight I'll be dreaming of what crazy bid I can come up. But we will let the hammer fall Sunday at 4:31:03 PM

Jamie I like your ideas, your helping making this interesting.

1320 ill pick for ya bud.
I think someone out there has a ash tray next to there computer with ciggerets butts in it stacked up about 12 inches high including the only half smoked ones that fell out because it was so full and left burn marks on their desk about the size of a silver dollar that would be willing to trade ya.
But what I think would top the trade for you, is if someone had a glass of milk sitting there on their desk, that they was to lazy to empty and wash for about 3 days and is still sitting there, that they could dump that ash tray in that glass of milk to make the trade that much better!!.I know this would seal the deal for you, and would be a trade you couldnt refuse!!
You and I have been close pumpkin growin buds for a while now, I know how you think, Ill take care of ya.

Okay, I already have all of the coins mentioned except for the 1890 Morgan dollar. I know the catalogue value of it and offer:

1 falus coin from Gujerat (India) dated 1574 (coin is about 1/4 inch thick)

1 pfennig from Hesse-Darmstadt (Germany) dated 1819 (33% silver)

1 silver 3 pence from South Africa dated 1940

745 Wursten 06 (1287 Van Kooten x 1095 Wallace)

12/8/2006 12:19:54 PM

Netherlands

That last one was not a coin but a pumpkin seed...

1287 = 1142 Van Kooten x 1097.5 Beachy
1095 = selfed 1367.5 Rose

I know for a fact that the coins listed equal $22. The other thing seeing it is close to the holiday season Jamie is possibly looking for a fruit cake. (Pumpkin) Then again he likes a lot of crazy stuff. Keep your bids coming.

12/8/2006 12:49:36 PM

A bit less than $22 seeing the condition they are in, but yes Bill, about that.

OK, this is my final offer, its a tremendous bottle of wine, This wine is preferred by most hobo's around the world,, a 1988 bottle of ''Mad Dog 20-20'' in mint condition somewhat, seal looks broken and looks to be about 3 oz shy of wine. But I'm sure this is how they where all sold back then.

Yea I remember my friends and I drinking that 20-20 when we was younger and had to split the change in our pockets on friday night to get a bottle, I think it cost at the time right around 69 cents or somthing,lol, Man did I get sick off that stuff too, your fine on minute and the next minute your passed out in the yard, that stuff hit ya quick.

Gone Twice and sold to Dutch Brad. Got to love those coins from around the world. However, that belly lint was a tough one to pass on. Brooks out of the kindness of your heart why not just send Jamie the Bottle of Mad Dog and your collection of belly lint.
