<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lordmarcovan, post: 3093036, member: 10461&quot;]CU is a great site or I wouldn&#039;t have spent 16 years there.&nbsp; It really formed the largest part of my numismatic education, when you get right down to it.</p><p><br /></p><p>It can, however, be rather elitist at times, and is not always newbie-friendly.&nbsp; That site is where most of the &quot;big boys&quot; in US numismatics hang out- the uber-wealthy collectors, the numismatic authors, so on.&nbsp; I&#039;m not suggesting that the big boys are always the less-friendly ones- there are hundreds of kind and helpful people there (big fish included) - but the culture is just different, is all.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s a place for folks who already have some numismatic experience, not a place for <i>&quot;this 1978 penny looks funny&quot;</i> kinda threads.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
