Vernet Shells

I have a set of Brass or bronze shells with VERNET cast inside. It’s hard to read, even with magnifiers.
Did Vernet make Brass Shells? Or maybe I have something else.
Thanks in advance,
Tom

Re: Magic Live Tickets For Sale

OK, someone is looking for a deal. How's this? Buy one, get one free.
Two for the price of one. I can't go and I'd hate to blow all the money.
I didn't realize the deadline to transfer tix is the 25th. So, please act now!
Such a deal.

Add up coins

I was reading in either a book or an ebook a few days ago and read an effect where you count a number of coins in a square and add one at a time and the total doesn't change. Corners. Will anyone steer me to the effect please? I don't know where I read it. CRS.
Thanks in advance,

I was stacking a deck (Osterlind)I had lying around and found it wasn't quite right. I sorted the cards and it contains black odd, red even in pairs. Two AS, two 3S etc. What is it? Did I buy it or set it up for something?
