 Have sent the description to our field office. Maybe they can find one.

Coins from Israel anyone?
I should be back on land from the Gulf of Mexico around the 9th of Sept
On the 20th I am off to Israel to move a rig.
I should have at least a couple of days on the beach before heading offshore.
Anyone wanting currently circulating Israeli coins or currency at face let me know..

'Old' topic I know but just took the coins out for their next rinse. After another  6months in olive oil
Some detail is beginning to show on a few. others are showing no improvement.

the coin on the bottom is the control coin. they were all in this shape when I got them.
Back into fresh olive oil to start year 4...

Found this today.. Amazing what you forget you have....

Mintage: 8,693,556

Got a D mint Yellowstone quarter in change yesterday....

Yep its toned.. Depending on the lighting angle it goes from metallic Green all the way to violet. with the light straight on is an iridescent blue.

Feeling blue anyone?
