<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2245674, member: 19463&quot;]I wrote a page on my site detailing a contest among friends on who could do best with $100 at a coin show.&nbsp; Now it might be time for us to have a contest as to who has blown $1000 of coins that the rest of the world would not possibly understand.&nbsp; JA set the mark at 12 coins so part of me wants to see which 12 of my 99 1/2 favorites add up to $1000 and would leave the most of those in the hobby scratching their heads.&nbsp; I hope I am correct that JA would not accept an offer of $1000 for those 12 coins any more than I would accept that offer, or any offer, for mine.&nbsp; Let me be perfectly blunt on the matter.&nbsp; If your collection means nothing more to you than the cash value it represents, you are in the wrong place reading this list.&nbsp; We have quite a range of participants here in terms of dollar value spent.&nbsp; We have a couple regulars that might have trouble showing a coin that cost as little as $1000 so they might have to play a 100k game.&nbsp; We have others who collect things many of us might have trouble orienting correctly as to which side is up.&nbsp; To say we are a strange lot is understatement.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
