Kyle--to get my mind off of other matters--I will answer your question. I bought some mother of pearl gaming counters (chips) on eBay. I was told they came from a Nunnery where the nuns, who did not know what they were, were using them as buttons.

One final statement. After HEARING the board members, I replaced the offending picture with another deck of cards. If you want to see the scan and more, by tomorrow night they will be on eBay under: Playing Cards: Adult: Old: Antique. I will restrict myself on this board to more aesthetic pictures. Doug
