Genuine black pawn!

This pawn is especially suited to en passant captures. In addition,
on arrival at the eighth rank it is fully capable of being promoted to
any piece of your choice! Extremely rare!

Larry, you forgot to mention that it is a 'genuine' black pawn. There are far too many non-genuine black pawns polluting boards out there!

I was taught that a bishop was considered more valuable than a pawn. However, this does not appear to be the case:

Looks like I need to throw out all of those silly chess instruction books on my shelf.
