Yesterday KT received in the Royal Courtyard 3 beautiful Walking Liberty halves, bearing well the ravages of time, but worn down and weary of over a century of travels (for two of them) and one very close to that time frame. Despite their wear, their dates are still visible and are 1917S, 1920, and 1927. They simply were looking for a place to rest and enjoy whatever life is granted to them by their Creator. And KT soon determined that they were living history, the oldest having been around during WWI, and all had seen the Roaring 20s, the Great Depression, WWII, Korea, the 60s "free love years", Vietnam, and Iraq and Iran. Once they are recovered from their long travels, what tales they should be able to tell about their journeys! KT welcomed them to stay as long as they wished, and their attitudes changed immediately from being considered "junk" by some, to that of pride in their battle scars. As their photo was taken, they assumed the pose of all quality Walkers, and were most pleased to hear that their picture would be seen far and wide in the Friendly Forum!
Enjoy these sweet ladies!
