Just throwin this out there for anyone to use. I recently went into my local Big Lots (closeout store) and they had these small wooden plaques with a coat hook on them...but above the hook was a recessed oriental coin. It is about the size of a half dollar with the familiar hole in the center. I was pretty sure I was gonna get it, so I dug out my handy keychain utility tool and pried the coin out its setting. Sure enough it was a real double-sided coin and metal. They kinda have a nice patina look to them. Not a bad find. I picked up 5.
Happy looking |

Hey David,
I just went to your sight and saw that you are in Aurora, CO. Though my profile doesn't reflect it yet, I live in Pueblo now. I'm not sure how far away that is yet, but I have figured out that the only magic shop in town here is now closed....I would love to find some local magicians to get in touch with to help get me back into the scene more. I kinda drifted away a bit when I left the east. |
