Ha! I did the same thing. He's probably referring to this thread. One in which the OP said both, "that’s how much of a rookie I am" and "I don’t...
I'm with you. That coin checks all the boxes. Great detail. Great history. A hint of toning, but not too much (I'm not a big toning freak)....
I was joking, gentlemen. No sane person would suggest abandoning silver coinage led to the fall of the British Empire. We need a "I'm not...
There was absolutely nothing in my comment to merit such a belligerent response. But thanks for showing your true colors so early in your tenure...
Ding! Ding! Ding! I think we have a winner.
A $76,000 collection build with pocket change and flea market finds? The man is a numismatic genius!
I’m more amused by the Lincoln error threads than I am annoyed. But also a little disappointed that new collectors seem largely oblivious to all...

Precisely! Spare the rod and spoil the child. :D
Like I said, at the risk of stating the obvious . . . but I figure better to state it than not, just in case.
From your earlier photo, it looks like you're using a plastic tub. At the risk of stating the obvious, switch to a glass or metal bowl when you...
@lordmarcovan . . . Rob, do you know if the Lighthouse albums are made of "coin safe" materials? I checked their site and could find nothing...
Screen name checks out.
Sounds similar to the bad tequila experience I had back in college. OK, OK . . . several bad tequila experiences.
I guess I don't see the problem. I have a complete set of nolegons in MS, which I would have been happy to discuss. :D
