Welcome to my 83,000s post celebration. I want to say that when I first joined CT I never thought about getting this many posts or the number of likes that I have. So thank you to all who made that possible. You see when I first joined CT, I felt I was treated rather nasty because of the post and comments that other members made. But I stuck with it and I’m glad I did. Yes I made some mistakes but haven’t we all. None of us are perfect. It’s not a matter of how many likes can we get or how many posts can we do. It’s all about learning and what we can teach others. Yes some posts are fun and we can certainly have a good time doing this, but that’s not what CT is about. It’s about coins. And I hope and pray that most of the CT members that read this feel the same way I do. I’ve learned a lot and it’s been my privilege to help others in the process. so here’s a 1946D walking liberty half dollar graded by PCGS in MS 65 In honor of my making so many post.
I'm glad you stuck with us. I've been on longer (2013) and I know that some of those members are no longer on CoinTalk. I had the same issue at times. Every member on here recently are pretty decent.
Congrats. That’s a lot of posts and I agree with you about CT. When I joined in Oct. 2017 I had no idea how much I didn’t know. I had lots of experience accumulating coins, but CT helped me establish patterns of study and research. I quickly ascribed to the notion that providing accurate information was paramount. Along with receiving accurate instruction and guidance I found Coin Talk to be the best teacher I knew, and reciprocated by offering accurate info in all my posts. And when I was proven wrong and had many bubbles burst I ended up being a much better collector. BTW, …beautiful ‘46-D, and congrats again…Spark
Congrats on the gigantic post count, Dave! I just want to know one thing, though………how many unopened packages do you have now?
Thanks, Paddy. I appreciate the response and yes, some of those members are no longer on CT. At the current time we have quite a few good members I would say. Most of our members that are on all the time are very helpful and polite to new people. I’m really glad I stuck with CT.
As far as I know less than 10. It’s the unknown that I worry about. LOL My antique shop has been so busy along with my Yard needing work because it’s spring, I just can’t find the time to sit and open packages and look at coins. I’ll get to them and post them so don’t worry.
