<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ryro, post: 3776658, member: 91461&quot;]It is hard for me not to feel singled out here, Doug (I mean you did reply to a kind shout out that was given me). Though I appreciate the feedback, I couldn&#039;t disagree much more (other than with the 1st 9 or so words<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />). Coin collecting is a hobby to be enjoyed, not suffered. If someone sites a source (even one as basic as Wikipedia) to catch the readers up to whatever the writer is on about or to cut to the chase I just don&#039;t have issue with that. If someone is knowledgeable on the subject then surely they would just glance over such things.</p><p><br /></p><p>Similarly, young collectors do not have an infinite revenue to purchase every $100-$500 reference book to say, &quot;I&#039;ve read this, so now I can post.&quot; Nor do I have issue with someone making it easier on others by putting numerous catalogue #s that might help others quickly identify what is being shared from their own collections (though certainly if I was misquoting a reference a friendly nudge or PM in the right direction is something I think anyone would appreciate).&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Great to read that your grandson has such a good teacher. Good teachers are becoming fewer and fewer in this country.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
