I saw Bob at FUN and suggested he join us over here. He has written an excellent book on 8R coins and his opinions are a huge help to everyone on another web site. I believe he will become a member sometime this week.
Well it's about time. We should probably bring over the others from coincommunity who balance out Bob's occasional oversights, like realeswatcher @Colonialjohn is already here but doesn't participate much unfortunately
It would be great to have him join these forums. His expertise in Mexico counterfeits is remarkable and the publication he authored (or co-authored) will be used as a standard in counterfeit detection, just as Riddell's "Monograph of the Silver Dollar" has been up to now.
I would certainly welcome realeswatcher here but I don't quite know how to take your comment about "Bob's occasional oversights". Others may disagree with him but his opinions are invariably backed with a high degree of scientific rigor.
