Glad you're on the mend, Randy. I find that I agree with you most of the time on threads. It's nice to be able to preach to the choir once in a...
Yeah, I wouldn't toss that one away yet. Are you close enough to a major coin show to make a visit? Steve
Wow, some of these portraits are really wonderful. Thanks for posting! I'm going to have to finish the Meditations some evening soon (gardening...
Always, always, always. Dirty or not. Heads or tails. My family is sometimes embarrassed (especially once at Valley Fair in Minnesota when I...
I understand, Chris. It would be a poor substitute, but maybe a poor one is better than none? Steve
@cpm9ball: Chris, my son bought a set of the WW II medals that my father had earned (but never received) and made a beautiful display. He got...

I was going for 25 before I saw some of the other posts. Now, I agree yours could go for 30. Steve
Guys, guys. I have appreciated both of you, but I don't think this debate is going anywhere. My personal feeling is that people are basically of...
Hey, @furryfrog02, never up, never in. I am far more likely to share my opinion now than I was three years ago when I joined CT. We learn by...
I also am not Roman Catholic nor French. But donated $20 the day it burned. Yes, a drop in the bucket. But my wife and I will never forget our...
Any information about the range of condition of these counterfeits? Are they typically high MS? Any "tells" on these? Sorry for all these...
Unlike we poor souls in Minnesota that can't afford to toss our money away, it must be fun to be in those rich FOG hunting grounds of NYC. Steve
