Amazing work on compiling all this data. What a trip down memory lane! After a hiatus due to 'life' I'm slowly reacquainting myself with some of the old groups and haunts. Lots of catching up to do!

Interesting. I need someone like yourself to come catalogue my inherited collection. Were you known as Job in some prior lifetime? I found your post interesting but it will take me several days to interpret and digest it. lol
I thought this was a super-interesting thread...well, OP at least since that's all I read. But it was FASCINATING to read about what was popular, who was popular, views, activity, etc. I am surprised that I didn't see any threads for posts/views/activity on Gold Coins (incl. Saints and DEs) and Silver Coins (incl. Morgans, Peace, etc.). I saw a post on gold's price falling back in 2012 but that's about it.
