I'm alive! Thanks for the mention. I just stopped collecting. I still have a few Columbian Expo medals and I try to keep in touch with the market. I'm actually in the process of selling off the last of my US coins, a type set in Dansco album. If anyone can recommend a trusted dealer in the Orlando area, let me know! I might end up getting these graded prior to selling.
Two guys I learned a lot from were JBN and roadrunner.
JBN just sold his incredible set of Walkers at Legend Auctions and is around but rarely posts these days.
Roadrunner hasn’t logged in since March and hasn’t really been in coin discussions for a long time. Great knowledge of seated halves.

I have returned.... Had some high priority, complex surgery....Now recovering at home after seven days in hospital. Cheers, RickO
that’s gonna cost you/your insurance co a $$bundle.
I recently checked into emergency & stayed overnight and it cost my insurance co over 26K.
You think that cost a lot. Two years ago I went into emergency room and ended up having 8 surgeries and 9 blood transfusions. I was in the hospital for months. I spent Christmas, New years and Easter in the hospital. Wonder how many millions of dollars it cost?
I reached out to Moursund a few months back, he said he was doing alright, had just gotten busy with other life things. Im fond of his sense of humor, hope to see him become active again.
Without commenting substantively, I will just say that I'm amused that a thread entitled, "Missing members...who do you realize is missing?" was started by someone who apparently has since been banned.

Just looked at his history from my PM's, 8:16 PM, OK thanks.
I just haven't seen him post in forever, and I know he likes those tiny half dimes.

Disappeared in March 2021 after messaging each other about a medal I was interesting in. No further communication since. Hope he is OK. He used to post quite often about Bolen medals and 1868 dated coinage

Just busy with work and not buying much ever since I went professional so not a lot to share! I'm also a lot more plugged into the industry and hear a lot of things I can't repeat so this place is a potential problem for me given I like to talk!
Hope you're well though!

I talked to him a couple of weeks ago via email. Sy is still alive and kicking. His focus has been directed more into space memorabilia.

Dimeman's doing quite well. We email occasionally. I can say that he's not too happy with his football team right about now.

Actually no. It is a meek, toothless, mild-mannered shadow of Insider2. The real
posts elsewhere on the less popular forums.
