Ole Peterson’s Sterling 999 - was just reading about this one in PPN - got it when listed on here by @ssjones many moons ago. And some of that new Star Wars tobacco. Interesting (to me) the Latakia jumped out a bit in flavor when I first lit the pipe and has now settled back in. I like it a little more subtle - the pup doesn’t like it at all!IMG_2665.jpegIMG_2655.jpeg

A quarter of the way through this bowl of Missouri Meerschaum DrawDown in a 2003 URAL full bend big bowl egg shaped Lattice meer with a black acrylic saddle stem. Working on a review of this blend, and getting ready to watch the Braves-D-Backs game.

Going to have Sutliff’s Pipe Force: Episode IV Signature Series by Per Georg Jensen in an Oguz Simsek Darth Vader Figural.

View attachment 234028

I received my seven tins today. I know coins are randomly inserted in about 1/10 tins. Do we know if stickers and patches are prizes being included with the tins? Or are they just promo items that were made to promote the tobacco?

I weighed all of the tins I received and they vary quite a bit:

1) 156 grams
2) 155 grams
3) 122 grams
4) 120 grams
5) 120 grams
6) 118 grams
7) 117 grams

Seems like I lucked out and got two coins (tins 1 and 2), which works out well since my buddy Chris is a Star Wars fan and is getting two tins out of the seven—we’ll each get a coin! Maybe he’ll smoke his blend in his Darth Vader pipe, too.

I’m wondering if tins 3, 4, and 5 contain a patch or sticker, and 6 and 7 no bonus.

Has anyone else weighed tins and/or opened them to see if there is a correlation with the prize and number of grams the total tin weighs?
Lucky you! I picked up 10 tins and nothing. Heaviest was 131.1 grams just tobacco.
