Nice find! I've been fortunate to find two W quarters in pocket change (as opposed to roll hunting, I've found fair numbers that way). One was at the post office, the other in change from the bank.you just brought up a very memorable individual, missed and loved by many, I bet you didn't realize that, and it makes this ttt moment pretty cool .

Ricko always replied to everything.
And very heartily ended every comment with: CHEERS
He is most certainly missed.7 -

True, but it was refreshing to see his name on page 1 again.
I've been lurking on here since I believe a bit before his passing (though I made my account back in January) he seemed like a very good and respectable man...
Red Rocket agrees with Goob yet he does wonder who Goob was before creating this new identity.

Goob wonders why Red Rocket talks about himself in the 3rd person.
All comments reflect the opinion of the author, even when irrefutably accurate.

The one responsible for issuing ancient thread alerts has dropped the ball. It is so, so tough to find good help anymore.
"Two things are infinite: human stupidity and the universe; and I'm not sure about the universe."
-Albert Einstein-Mistakes are natural. But repeated mistakes without reflection are something else. That may be the “stupidity” he was referring to. In research, he admitted uncertainty openly. “If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it?” This shows humility. Even a Nobel laureate accepted doubt. That humility makes the quote less cynical and more observational.

HEY,
Ole Friends!
Couldn't help but join in the reminiscing of our good buddy,RickO

How is everyone?
I just wanted to stop in quickly and share something pertaining to our dear friend!Back in the day, when I was still proactive in COINS.
Especially when the
"W" (Westpoint Quarters)
we're a real HOT 🔥 Topic!
When we were all chasing these gems.
Anyway, I remember when, RickO, was really struggling to hunt down his first Westpoint Quarter.
I felt so bad for the guy.
So I decided to send RickO one from my collection!
When he did receive it he was so appreciative.
Well, you know RickO.
The generous and thoughtful guy he was.
He PM'd me and he asked for my address so that he could send me a surprise in return for the W Quarter I sent him?
Of course I told him, he didn't have to do such a thing. He insisted.
Well, here's what RickO sent me...
Awesome Gentlemen!
First, here's the Letter.




RickO, will always be deep in my heart!
He was our most beloved PCGS Member.
Always fun with his many, many, many posts!
Thanks guys for rekindling this thread of our buddy,RickO Cheers
"We miss you my friend."

I've given up on CoinStar. I felt cheap scooping up change in front on minimum wage Walmart employees, even if I did get an occasional hit.

Interesting. I’m still new here and learning the ropes. No idea how old this post is. Any tips on how this place works and how I can be a worthwhile member would be greatly appreciated!

Just look at the date of the prior person's post. That's the last time anyone posted to the thread. 🧐

Temporarily surprised to see a Ricko thread again.
I genuinely miss that guy! I would always post my meme in any thread that I thought he would eventually get to, I’ve never posted it since he passed…
I guess I will now just to fondly remember him. :'(
