Cool video, Infidel! :bear_thumb: Must be from that show, "How It's Made" on the Discovery Channel.

So thats the difference between proof and standard, (1) strike.

Pretty much, but then a high proof has to be individually inspected and buffed if any flaws exist.

I was channel-surfing on Sunday and came across these programs, too. (I couldn't understand why they were airing on the Travel Channel.) Will set the DVR for them next time they air. Excellent shows, catch them if you can.

On the paper money show, they even boldly stated that the paper dollar is backed by "nothing." :emotions16:

I'll have to try and catch a re-airing of those shows, they sound great. :beer:

somedays I wish I had cable again - I like the educational shows - doesn't seem like such a waste of time if you are learning something.
