My big ticket pennies

Posted August 18th, 2009 by admin

The other day, I found in my pocket two remarkable pennies — one from 1946 and one from 1959. The picture of a king tipped me off to the 1946 one, and I thought that it must be a foreign coin. But no, at one point, there was a king that was on a Canadian coin. The 1959 one I found after, tipped off by the very lovely and young picture of Queen Elizabeth. So I thought that maybe I could make some money off of it…

Perhaps. A few cents to a couple of dollars. Not bad for a couple of pennies, is it? Unfortunately, eBay is already selling these with little success, so I guess they are going to continue in my pocket.

On another note, I wonder what Stargate Atlantis would be like with Lolcats. The Lolcat would be the hero, of course, with Rodney ranting furiously and jealously about letting cats just play around with Atlantis’s systems (and pretty much do his job).

And when Atlantis inevitably goes haywire?
