    I have been keeping track of the coins I have posted on CT and I have noticed something. There are a lot of coins that I have yet to post. Perhaps it is because I am reactive. I only post coins in response to another post. Thus I have found coins that as near as I can tell haven't been posted in over a year. However I have been think of this for some time now. How about a thread on coins which for whatever reason you never post. One that for again what ever reason you have never bother to post. So lets get out the wallflowers, the orphans the ones you haven't posted in months and give them a chance to strut their stuff.
