>>>During the Battle of Shiloh, George was shot point blank. A bullet ripped into the pocket of his trousers and struck the center of the gold coin....Queenie's good luck gift had saved his life.<<<<

Looks like the coin did as much to save George's "love life"<G>

Great story, Chispas. The Hunley Museum in Charleston is on our list of things to see when we get back east again.

>>>If you haven't already done so, take a look at the Gold Lease Rates. That's right, the one month Gold lease rate fell to 0.001% on January 9. There is no more downside left AT ALL. Central Banks are now offering their Gold at NO COST to any bullion bank who wants to sell it and invest the proceeds in something that pays a higher rate of return. Even T-Bills now pay a rate of return. Wouldn't you like a "mortgage" with a rate of 0.001%? Or maybe a credit card? This Gold lease rate has "DESPERATION" written all over it.<<<<<
