JKK Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 We all react to trauma in different ways. If I ever have a stroke, I hope it inspires me to be kinder and more accepting, but I can't say what it might do. I haven't been there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's maybe 3/4 upbringing and 1/4 medical, but it sure didn't help. My hemorrhage was "supposed to" kill me, but instead it altered my personality and stoked my own sense of personal defiance, in this case, of the odds of survival. I have received Last Rites ten years ago, and I'm not even Catholic, but the priest gave them because no one knew my religion and "it can't hurt". Glad you survived the storke, Lucky ! I guess it makes no difference point out how rude you are, you grumpy old man. I was going to suggest a disclaimer on your profile but you have one already. hahaha. 1 hour ago, VKurtB said: (Or British Alphabet 10p in the U.K.) I was going to say that the British Alphabet interest me more that the W quarters. I should Research them more. I only have one UK coin stumbled upon it in a lot. I would have to dig it out to show you but I won't. maybe when I stumble upon it while looking for something else.

Yeah, I heard the same words growing up. But I was also taught, respect yourself, show respect and respect is earned not given. Show respect once and if it is not returned duck 'em.

Can anyone give me a little insight on what I'm looking at here? One is an error coin. Any value here? Sorry your question spun out of control with people arguing about how to treat each other over the internet. Some people feel the need to give their opinions and tell you how you should also share their opinion too. But just think in a couple more years there’s gonna be doctors/judges/most teachers with tattoos and helpful information and not 64 year olds that have spit shinned pennys since they were 6 years old and called it a proof today. I’m a NEWBIE also and had kind of the same question. I knew mine wasn’t a proof unless it had traveled a couple pockets till it came into my hands. I was told mine was DDD (die deterioration, doubling) instead of DDR(double die reverse). Sadly these are only worth face value. The best part is you can go into anywhere that expects cash and they’ll give you 1c for it. keep hunting…we will find one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
