Furryfrog02 Posted November 7, 2023 · Supporter Share Posted November 7, 2023 Dang hopefully they get back to normal operations soon. I saw an update article from 4 days ago that said they are still backed up. Good luck and hopefully your coins arrive safely and free from mercury, unless it is the Mercury that @Roman Collectorposted 😛 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Limes Posted November 8, 2023 · Supporter Share Posted November 8, 2023 (edited) I will say a prayer and make an offering on your behalf to Mercury, in his temple (well, to be more specific, in front of our cabinet where this coin is stored 😁), and maybe he'll grant you a miracle too! I'll have to clean up all the blood and so on quickly though, or my kids will be traumatized for life.
