<p>[QUOTE=&quot;tenacious, post: 2446909, member: 14553&quot;]Although I agree wholeheartedly with the anti-ancient-slabbers, this thread is about Barry Murphy.</p><p><br /></p><p>I started seriously collecting ancient coins in 1997. Somewhere early on I came upon Barry Murphy&#039;s posts on FORVM and Barry&#039;s store on vcoins.</p><p><br /></p><p>It was apparent to this newbie at that time that Barry had knowledge, experience, and nice coins at fair prices. I was always happy to see Barry&#039;s posts in coin thread discussions because I usually learned something of import. He was obviously someone who had much, and a wide variety of, knowledge in the field.&nbsp; And IMO he could have sold his coins for much higher than he did. His goal was obviously not to squeeze every last $ out of every last coin.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Although I am not a fan of NGC slabbing ancients, having Barry on board can only be a benefit.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have bought coins from Barry. And although he may or may not remember me, I wish him the best. And please keep on sharing your knowledge Barry.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
