[QUOTE="WingedLiberty, post: 2062486, member: 26030"]Ahh ok ... that makes sense. Perhaps people get to know others in a particular forum so they post where their friends are. After all this is a bit of a "social network" In any case, it doesn't bother me at all!! I was just curious, that's all. This is just for fun!! It's a pastime. And it's fun for me to see the occasional foreign coin in here -- just to see what the rest of the world's money looks like (since I never surf over to the world coins forum). In any case, I never understood people getting all bent out of shape over minutia anyway. I dont mind people posting whatever in here. It's all interesting to me. Someone recently posted in the Collectors Universe Forum that their wife just died ... so sad. Compared with life and death ... coins and forum postings are quickly put in their place in the scheme of things. I probably should not have posted this question at all -- my intent was not to make anyone feel weird or outcast -- I was just curious. Maybe I will start posting some cool paper money notes on here as I always felt like US paper money and US coins were so closely related. There! Done! Now I am a rebel (LOL). I have to admit it's kind of fun crossing these little arbitrary boundaries. This is an 1896 U.S Silver Certificate, [IMG]https://mindstar.com/cointalk_photos/1896EducationDollarBig.jpg[/IMG] which could be taken to any bank to be instantly redeemed for one of these "big silver disks"!
