Like many who have collected for a number of years, (I think) Doug is at a point now where he enjoys the study of coins and can appreciate many things about many different series, but is no longer excited by completing a set or even by chasing a particular rarity. He is contented in studying more coins, reading and learning more, appreciating the coins that he views, and educating others but he is no longer wanting for anything else from the hobby.
OK, 36 posts to go divided by 8.78 ppd = 4.1 days. One-tenth of one day is 2.4 hours. Therefore, one might reasonably conclude the answer is 4 days, 2 hours and 40 minutes starting from exactly right now! Therefore, that's my guess...whatever date/time that is.
Doug, how'd you get here so fast!? I calculated it out, it should have been in the beginning of the second week in February!
And you based it on "Posts Per Day: 8.78". Right? Except he has done 250 posts in the last 11 days. As the volume on CT has picked up, so have his posts.
Actually, someone needs to post a MS65 1364 80 franc a pied rev. That should really get him going. (For those who do not remember or have never seen, look at his Picture 59 & 60 of 60 from Album France. "It was struck in pure gold 1364 by the Count Louis De Male in Flanders. It is known as the franc a cheval, also known as the cavalier d'or. The coin was designed, struck and issued for only one purpose - to pay the ransom for the King of France, captured in battle by his arch enemy the Black Prince. " "1364 Louis De Male franc a cheval (also known as a Cavalier D'Or) MS64 (finest known)")
