I don't think I properly introduced myself when I joined. I started out at a yong age as a collector, but have been a full time dealer for 30 years, in a number of different and exciting capacities. Below is my numismatic background, as it appears on my website. Please feel free to ask me any questions if you think I might be able to be of assistance. And if I can't answer them, I wont be afraid to admit it.
