I love the give and take of CT and don't see any reason to limit new members in any way. To the contrary, some of my favorite threads are from...
You're such an awesome presence in the coin collecting community Ken that they couldn't do any less for you...certainly a lot more though!:D...
That's amazing Matt! Having unusual things like that cross your desk must make your day. Thanks for posting it. Bruce
Apparently, your quarter had children at some point Quartered since it has "stretch marks." Two dimes and a nickel perhaps? :D Bruce
Thanks Mark. Looking forward to seeing them. Bruce
Cool find from a lot Mark. Sounds like you did pretty good with your new pickups. Bruce
Yeah, sometimes those tiny little details like the "AND" on your Florin are easy to miss. Because I've been studying and collecting counterstamps...
Thanks for your input Willie. The "LL" or "CH" initials aren't those of any political organization of slogan I've come across yet, but you never...

They're all beauties Lance, but I'm just as interested in seeing your "real" 1799 than pictures of these pedigrees. Any Bust Dollar is a treasure...
[ATTACH][ATTACH][ATTACH][ATTACH] As some of you know I'm an avid collector and researcher of primarily 19th Century U.S. counterstamps. I've...
I also use EZ-Sniper and have had great luck on bidding New. Using a snipe program lets you place you high bid with them so you don't have to hang...
I think you're doing the right thing Peter. Sounds like it will be easier for all concerned, certainly for me. Bruce
Great information Thinn!. I research almost anything I buy because knowing something about a piece in your collection gives added meaning to it....
That's a nice one Thinn. Did you try to research the signer of the note? It might give a little history on the piece as well as on him. Bruce
It does look like your avitar Calum. Man, jlblonde that's one worn coin and to add insult to injury nature "painted" it green...but I still like...
