The Quarter Master is a gentleman of a certain age. I know this much from a face-redacted photo that was in one of his old mailings. Beyond...
ALWAYS open any mail you might get from the Quarter Master! I used his enclosed Ulysses to help with the holiday shopping. It was timely and...
Just don’t put it into your safe next to a Stone Mountain half, or there will be trouble!
Saw that, and had already figured it that way, should your post win the drawing. Good on you, @Sting 60 .
If that’s the case (and hey, I kinda like the idea), then there’s a regular family reunion of departed relatives in my front yard! Cardinals are...

Quarter Master- if you’re reading this, first of all, thanks again- and secondly, I should let you know that I’ve shipped out a couple of dozen of...

Boustrophedon just became my new vocabulary word for the day. Thanks. :)

These are cool coins. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
PS- that YouTube vid was helpful. I'm still clueless, but it expanded my nearly-nonexistent knowledge of the Chola Empire somewhat. Kudos to the...
Even though I’m not usually one of that rarified group, I’m glad there are people out there exploring the niches. It helps our collective...
Here’s his CoinTalk profile. We salute you, @Severus Alexander. Maybe it’s selfish of me, but when my time comes, I could only wish to be...
