Very impressive!!! It was so informative and presented so succinctly. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.

Ruben,

Did I hear you mention a prize for second and third place, because there ain't no way I am in first anymore. I would be happy to take the bronze medal behind Fish and Drusus.

Phenomenal Post that belongs in the Hall of Fame. BTW, what happened to all of the threads in the Hall of Fame, they are all gone.

I'm thinking about it if I can find prizes. Would you take a picture of a toned coin in a frame That's an idea actually. I might add that to the prizes anyway.

I noticed that the Hall of Fame is reset. There was a post by Clembo that had nearly a 100 nominations which was basically a "Why Coin Talk is Great and Changed My Life" thread. Despite that description, it was a brillant thread.

In truth, I wish I could give everyone a prize. I also hope for world peace, and good will to Jews in their land, a trip to Mars in my lifetime, and the end of global warming.

Or....maybe we can print and bind the entire museum and give it out as prizes.

No, though I get asked that a lot. I think it's the beard.

mrbrklyn

He seems to be a PIA in Baylug so how many active GNU people are there with the name Fish

I never saw this before Mr Fish. This looks very useful. I'll have to download it and give it a run.

Is this the first time your reading it? It is an awesome thread, but I'm surprised you haven't seen it already..

Thanks, I'm glad everyone enjoyed it. It was quite fun to put together.

Ruben, just give him the gold coin already, we all know he won. Don't forget my honorable mention (gold foil covered chocolate coin).

Numan

Great Job. I have an 1804 half and you motivated me to go back to take a more detailed look at it.

I'm not going to be the only vote and people deserve a good grade.
