Sending PM

I am a new user and want to PM someone. I've been looking at other discussions on how to do it but nothing allows me even see an option or a window to do this. I see nothing in my profile that would allow me to send a PM. I tried using Edge and Chrome browser. I do not see any yellow lock icon anywhere. I do not see any message window when I click on the person's name. I've googled this but I'm not finding any clues. I'm sure that the issue is on my end but I know my eyes aren't that bad yet that I can't see any icons or message options or boxes. Thanks in afvance.

    Welcome. :)

    There is tool bar at the top of your screen. Go to the right-hand side of the tool bar. It looks like this:

    Position your cursor over the inbox icon, second from left, and left click. This will result in a drop-down menu.

    Position your cursor over "new message", and left click.

    Edited to add:
    Should have been more clear. This is one way to do it. However, as @ifthevamzarockin and @MsMorrisine have pointed out, this will not work until you are a "Member".

    I think on the first day i joined (actually rejoined), my tools/options weren't active right away. Took a day?

    Similar to posting comments. Sometimes new members get the “ wait til it clears” flag. Welcome when I returned I had a few day wait. I searched and read old posts to pass the time 😉

    All - thanks for all of your quick responses and explanations. I am able to PM now. I thought I had received a message that I was now a "member, but I may have jumped the gun? In any case, I am good to go! Looking forward to using this forum.

    yeah, post a good picture of a coin, and you will get comments and opinions about the grade, whether it is an error or damaged, approximate value, and useful trivia!
