I love the NNP.

Have spent hours and hours and hours over there in the past few months.

That vortex is quite mighty!

I'm still reading through old mint records, trying to keep a file with bookmarks to interesting subjects - every time my wife walks by the computer, all I get is the "More old coin letters huh?"

RG 104 Box 120 hit the NNP last night - that's tonight's project!

These are among the best price lists from any US coin dealer. They often included interesting and original articles not found elsewhere. I bought several coins from early issues, although I could never quite save enough for one of the 1799 eagles. Offerings from the Hathaway & Bowers era were always of superior quality. Later, when Jim Ruddy re-connected with Bowers, the quality declined, although replacements for returns were much better.

Wonderful! Thank you to all who made this happen!

I don't remember the issue but one article in that series formed the basis for much of what I teach about toning and the color of coins. I wish I could credit the author.

But I still like my paper copies. Though I have already looked at the NNP to see some I don't have.

Mine is happy that I am just reading and not buying...

...until a package arrives in the mail.
