Congrats on reaching the milestone! I probably can't thank everyone I've ever interacted with on this Forum but there are definitely a few standouts...
@BillJones definitely for honing my collecting interests... especially for Type pieces
@Walkerguy21D for numerous discussions about early copper... and selling me a few of his Middle Dates.
I also follow posts from @MFeld a lot for perspectives on grading and coin collecting in general.
Also have to give a shout out to @TomB and @ifthevamzarockin for a much better appreciation for coin imaging and my utter lack of photographic skills... lol... I aspire to @airplanenut 's skills in that regard...
Collecting: Dansco 7070; Middle Date Large Cents (VF-AU); Box of 20;
I’m very happy to see my name mentioned with so many great folks. Thanks to so many here I’ve become a better person and definitely a better collector.
The greatest joy I have is the giveaway’s ( my birthday is Monday so ?) and bringing a little joy into a random members life.
Ricko gets my vote.
But I want to mention JM who I agree and disagree with but always respect the amount of time and thought you put into your responses 😉🙀🦫
Perhaps. My innocence blunder referring to Fred W. as the slabbed cricket guy will be a disqualifier, although Fred kindly understand and was forgiving and a saw the humor. Although now I am am a still embarrassed somewhat 😁
I always enjoyed Roadrunner's posts. I was new in the Liberty Seated series and had many great conversations publicly and privately. He way kind and patient and always seemed to have time to chew the fat.
Brian has a ton of experience in the series and set me straight more than once. It's been a while since he posted!
I haven't been here long but the wealth of knowledge here is unmatched. I've learned so much and wish I had the budget to buy some of the amazing coins I see here. I enjoy the pics and the unbelievable quality of some of the older coins.
If I had to pick one person whose posts I look forward to it would be @joeykoins. His passion and enjoyment of coins and "The Hunt" always makes me smile.
Congratulations @jessewvu on your milestone and thank you for the giveaway opportunity
Wow, what a nice thing to say, bud, thank you!
Although, I'm sure I'm not alone on the forum that has the enthusiasm and passion, such as I do?
This place reeks, with Knowledge from many members, namely the OP of this thread.
Thanks again, dude.

I don't think Ive been on here long enough to get to know the members very well but you asked if anyone else wanted a shot...
2 members who I value the opinions and expertise of very much are @MFeld and Jack Young ( @burfle23), If I was going to vote for just 1 it would be Jack, his extensive research (especially in the counterfeit field) is just amazing and I rely on it quite a bit. He has also been very helpful to me personally and took the time to do some digging in regards to a counterfeit I had that I was interested in learning more about, Jack gets my vote
Thanks for the chance!

Still making memories, great forum.
Just checked the ATB link.......Wow ! Over 300 pages long, going to take a long while read that one!
Thanks for the opportunity!
I'd like to remind everyone of the historical perspective and wisdom added here with his characteristically flavorful and sometimes spicey language, by my 'friend' @ColonelJessup. He's generously offered assistance to me, and I always looked forward to his posts.
Thanks for all the responses. Sorry I couldn't post much along the way, I've been on travel and busy with work.
I decided to make 3 winners, all below will get a 2022 1/10th oz gold eagle. I'll PM each of you separately shortly: @ricko @lordmarcovan @oih82w8
Not much science to my madness, of those generally high on the nominations list, them also posting really helped their odds and one completely random winner.
I know it's a day late but there have been a lot of people here that have helped me simply by critiquing some of the coins I posted. The only name that really sticks out during my limited time here so far is @ricko.
Given the need to “pay it forward” some now, and with my own 21st anniversary on the forums imminent, I will do another giveaway of my own very soon. It won’t be a gold coin, but it’ll be something fun.

Congratulations to all who were nominated.
I am glad that one of my nominations @ricko was a winner.
He is as I stated in my post “a cornerstone” of this forum.

BTW, I forgot in my original posts to congratulate @jessewvu on the milestone, so let me belatedly do that, and also to thank him again for the prize, which stunned me a bit (in a good way).
