So the coin thing.
It is given to someone as a token of appreciation so you earn it.
So how would we earn a tw coin?
Or us it just going to be collecting thing?

 

I went in (initially) in 1982 and there weren't a whole lot of them, usually just General Officers. Towards the end of my career I seen quite a few down to LTC and even down to CPT of a few teams.

 

Collecting thing or give one to someone who helps you out

 

Ahhhhh.

 

If someone helps maybe I can give them some old car parts lovingly destroyed by me...

 

Fender washers and a sharpie work.

 

Hell yea. I got some metal stamps I can pound letters on them too. Add some lead from some wheel weights. Put some grind marks on them with my wiz wheel.
Custom fab...

 

Some coins are numbered so you could do a limited number thing. That'll raise the value right there...much more coveted.

 

You've had me LMAO last couple of posts so hard it isn't fair. I can think of pumps, flexible couplings, valve bodies and many other things would liked to have done the same with. Wheel weights though are almost gold. Lead prices are through the roof and have been for awhile. I looked at using wheel weights to drop my own shot to save money a few years back and every garage had contracts to have someone come along and pick them up and pay money for them. At one time they were damned near considered hazmat and you couldn't give them away they sat around in 55 gallon drums.

 

Yea the value of my shit? I'd be lucky if the postal service accepted them for delivery.

 

Well goodnight all.
Ty for everything.
Peace to you all....

 

night all
