    Okay--Simply put: God's chosen people are free to practice their religion in the Jewish Autonomous Oblast. But apparently they prefer the prime real estate elsewhere. Read up on the so-called Russian Mennonites, too. Mant interesting comparisons, there .

    I can greatly recommend "Coincraft", a small family-owned store in London right across the street from the British Museum:

    I dont want to spend the necessary dinero on near-perfect coins. Condition is key in that collecting world as you know.

    The oldest thing I have in my house is a coin from the reign of one of the Scottish Stuarts, I think it might be the first James. I got it in Edinburough and because I could afford it, it has very soft features.
    I also have two pieces of 18 century, Scottish silver, and of course that’s not very old compared to your coin, but it’s just a couple of things that I like.

    I see the Israelis are flooding Hamas tunnels with seawater. A decade or so, the Egyptians were doing the same with sewage to prevent terrorists sneaking into their territory for mischief and mayhem. It made me wonder if the Egyptians must be glad that they had no interest in getting Gaza back after the Six Day War.
