Yes, it's a personality thing. Some people like to play "arbitrator" or the "neighborhood busy body" who wants everything done as they approve. It is much easier to post about feelings, and correctness of "tone" than to add something to a thread. Often a topic gets sidetracked into humor or even gardening! Most of the people here have really neat life experiences and it gets both informative and entertaining when they share them. This thread is an example, while some of us are throwing pebbles, others are sticking to the topic. ;) NOW I HATE TO BE PICKY BUT: the photo is still not sharp enough. The close up posted showing the mark WAS SHARP. In that photo, I could actually see tiny raised pimples on the surface. If you have access, your coin should weigh between 26.4 and 26.7 grams.[/QUOTE]
