Why does it seem that the older numismatists

I like mine in albums also. I can take them out and hold them in my hands if I want to. Who knows, I might be holding a penny that Roosevelt held or maybe Kennedy or a coin that was held by Constantine himself. You can't do that in a slab.

Certainly possibilities.... and is why it's important to speak to the man in charge before judging him. If the OP says the nephew is a knowledgeable fellow I've no reason to doubt him, but other factors can come into play. Plus, just because the owner thought 64, this doesn't mean the nephew automatically agreed, and as said earlier, when buying raw, it is always wise to err on the side of caution. If the owner was willing to pay wholesale 64 money for it and blows the call, it is his business and is on his shoulders, but if an employee, family or not does the same, well, we both know how human nature all too often works.

 

This is not about coins but it does have to do with how some people will reply to a question on a chat board.

Many years ago I wanted to learn about computers so I would ask questions on a chat board. Now this was before there was the fancy interface of windows it was just a black screen with text kinda like in the dos days, anyhow someone got tired of me asking questions and told me to Yes, we know what it stands for and it is not allowed. No abbrev., acronyms, or other symbols substituted ~ read rules.So I took their advice and learned for myself. At the time I thought it was rude but in the end it was good advise because now I know everything I need/want to know about computers, and if there is something I need to know I just edited

 

And thus the problem starts!!

 

It's what you learn, after you know it all, that counts..........

 

welcome to CoinTalk, where our opinions are worth... well, I'll let you grade that coin.

 

Knowing it all is a tedious, boring existence.

 

Not if you have one of these to wear while on your computer:

 

Where she joined in 2014 and just had 2 edits today?

 

I started ophph with nuthin, and I can safely say I have most of it left....

 

I saw it. And have reported it.

(Thanks - the post is gone now.)

 

OH MY!!! WHY DONT YOU TELL US HOW YOU REALLY FEEL THERE "CUSE ME"

 

Don't despair, we all admire you for it.

 

I've reported this to Miss Manners, and to my mom!

Wow, someone's having a bad day...

 

It's hard to beat a good Internet melt-down for LOLs.

 

Yikes! How'd ya like to be married to that?

 

Wow, what'd I miss?

 

I personally don't care for most of the moderators? I don't feel we need them on this site. They are quick to point out "Without saying" that they know everything. There are more cut-downs and arguments on this site than any other coin sites out there. Now watch. If the moderators allow my post, they will surely argue.

 

They removed her post - it was a good read - LOL!!!!

 

Aww...I missed it!
