<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 3736572, member: 19463&quot;]I always considered Ed Waddell one of the good guys but one I rarely dealt with because his minimum price coin tended to be above my maximum.&nbsp; He continues to be friendly when I see him at a show but certainly knows I am not a likely sale.&nbsp; Many years ago he registered the Internet address he still uses:</p><p><a href="https://www.coin.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.coin.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.coin.com/</a></p><p>I was of the opinion then that the name coin.com could someday be worth as much as the coins but he continued to get better and better coins so I don&#039;t know.</p><p>My first coin from him in 1988:</p><p>Agathokles, Syracuse</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1002019[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>In 1990, he had a terrible old collection far beneath what he usually carried and housed in the earliest generation of plastic flips that had covered the coins with green slime.&nbsp; I found a couple worth the risk of cleaning considering the low prices.&nbsp; He seemed embarrassed to sell them.&nbsp; I would not have paid what the coins were worth had someone else washed them.</p><p>Gallienus with the best portrait I have seen of his not to mention that gorgon shield</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1002024[/ATTACH]</p><p>Those were the good old days.&nbsp; I&#039;m glad for the sellers I knew then that have grown into better things and no longer have to carry coins in my bracket.&nbsp; I&#039;m also glad I have not grown with them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
