And 50 years earlier, in 1737, the so-called Higley Coppers (produced right here in Connecticut) proclaimed, "Value Me As You Please / I Am Good Copper"

:thumbup:

Group assignment for today: Walk into the coffee shop and announce "I value this quarter at ten dollars"
From hence ye beauties undeceived, know one false step is ne'er retrieved
and be with caution bold.
Not all that tempts your wandering eyes and heedless hearts is lawful prize,
nor all that glistens gold.
- Thomas Gray, 1747
