Looks like you might be buyin', and that will be a double round because I do not see your name or anything else on it that identifies that it is yours.

Okay so here is the bad coin story. I hooked up with a few buddies that rode Harleys (10th Groupers) and we went on a Veteran's Day Poker Run. I showed up at the prescribed time and of course I had my coin with me! One of my good friends, Rock Tyson, talked me into mounting my coin on the timing cover because it looked cool and everyone was doing it. I saw several other bikes and I did think it looked pretty sharp. But you all know what your Mother said about, “Well if everyone was jumping off the bridge…” Rock just happen to have a tube of JB Weld in his saddlebags, so he mixed up a batch and I pulled out my coin. With the JB Weld firmly holding my 10th Group coin in place we take off and as luck would have it, my girlfriend (at the time now my wife) won the pot…like $400 with 4 Kings! Then it happened, Rock dropped a coin on the table quickly followed by every other SF’er in the house! My coin now permanently attached to the 500 lb Motorcycle in the parking lot!

Bottom line...I went home $50 in the hole! But we had a great time and easy come easy go!


****Advert for JB Weld****
That was back in ’99 or 2000 and to this day the coin is still firmly in place! Rock…that was a good batch of JB Weld!

I had to get another coin and no I do not have my name on that one!!!!

Well damn jon I tried replying to your thread and edited by mistake. Guess that gets you off the hook for buying my first round Now you know why they only let 18As write the msg but the 18E checks it before it goes out over the air.

I received this one from the Team in Bad Tölz in 1990.

If you guys show up over here, the first round is on me anyway.
