[Shotimes] Interesting coin on eBay

[van Oss]

Okay, looking at the other cars being stamped, it's not so terribly odd that 
the Taurus would be included.  If you go back and look at   1) Ford's 
situation in the mid 80's and  2) what the other US makers were offering in 
'86, it's not too hard to believe that the Taurus was one of Ford's more 
important introductions.
