| He's Baaaaaaaaaaaack! MBT joins this forum!
I was booted from the PCGS board awhile ago--in the big purge.
My biggest sin was harping on PCGS to issue a meaningful guaranty of authenticity. WIth help from Julian and others, this was a successful quest.
Golly gee, with all the fakes coming in from China, maybe MBT was right all along.
Yes, I was booted. But I prevailed. I feel like Rocky Balboa when he won his second fight with Apollo Creed--YO ADRIAN--I DID IT!!
Like Nixon said when he announced for the Presidency the second time--"how would you like to have MBT to kick around again?"
I look forward to having my say and contributing to the advancement of all things numismatic.

Yeah, you are right. I am new to these boards and still don't understand the difference between coin talk and coin forum.

The US Coins Board and Coin Chat Board are pretty similar in my eyes and most of the members seem to visit both. The rest of the boards are named pretty specific to what they are for.

Welcome to CoinTalk. You'll learn a lot here. It can't be helped. There are too many learned contributers here that love to share their knowledge.

This is off topic but that thread is a poster child for why many collectors (including myself) refuse to participate in the PCGS forum. I have never seen such a group of mean spirited, obnoxious, sarcastic, arrogant, and for a lack of a better word, Language please
In addition, that thread does nothing to explain why you got booted off the PCGS forum. Furthermore, I still have no idea why Larry thinks this is a joke or what the "real truth" is that he was referring to. After reading that thread on the PCGS forum, it is evident that you are not shy MBT. Please fill us in.

Yeah, they are a vicious group with a bunch of doubting Thomases,
I was ousted in the big purge because I harassed PCGS and it's founder David Hall by vigorously pressing for a meaningful guaranty of authenticity.

| Can't agree more. I have made some friends over there, but the conversations I've had, and the friends I have made here, are way better at cointalk.
Most of them are all just a bunch of (expletives)
