Wow, A completely unprovoked insult cast in my direction from none other than TomCorona. You seem to understand that there are coin collectors...
Ironically, I find that this forum is not near serious enough. It is like a crab cake with no crab meat. I do what I can, but it seems that...
This entire thread is a disgrace!
After reading this, I could not shake the image of a kid poking a hornets nest with a stick from my mind.:D
Here is my opinion. He ain't a kid, it ain't a shame, he is trying to scam some poor compassionate sucker out of some money by knowingly listing...
All we could muster is nine votes huh? BUMP!:headbang:
The examples that you provided are not pedigree's IMO. A pedigree refers to ownership of the item. Usually, only pedigree's of notable...

Doug, I was waiting for you to show up. Although Bowers was given some credit early in the thread, the inspiration for this thread was provided...
With the exception of the State Quarters and Presidential Dollars, I don't collect modern (1964-present) coins. However, I believe that strike is...
