    @PerryHall

    Jack Benny is funny... this is not funny.

    Thank you for acknowledging my delightful sense of humor which is more often than not quite dry and will give new meaning to the dead pan pioneered by Buster Keaton 100 years ago.

    I really do not want to have anything to do with this...

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    Once we choose the king will there be a thread to pick the court jester? :*

    The king would pick his posse.

    As long as he doesn't pick his nose.

    Then, he might actually be the King and the Jester.

    I’m team @Floridafacelifter, he will fund the militia better than the others when it comes time to crack down on dissenters.

    And if the management team needs to make a clean getaway it should be fairly straight forward to get new identities

    I second @Floridafacelifter

    If nothing else a man who spends his days drastically improving Busts can't be that bad a choice!

    Thank you, I am just a ham and egger compared to some people here.

    Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals. In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?

    As a side note, anyone who wants can post a picture of a coin with a king or a president on it.

    I would also like to make @OAKSTAR my nominee for being my friend since I joined.

    You don't elect Kings. They seize power.

    The obvious King of the forum is the troll of the week who manages to seize control every week.

    This king is not official, therefore he is electable.

    It was a joke.

    That being the case, I am asking for volunteers for the Forum Liberation Front who will seek to overthrow the King as soon as she is seated.

    If it gave me the power to point at a troll thread and say "ZOTZ!" and it would go away, I might consider the position.....

    I have learned more from @burfle23 than anyone else here. @BillJones always posts things that entice and educate me, too.

    I am a newer collector (started April 2020), and I primarily focus on U.S. Half Cents and Type Coins. Early copper is my favorite.

    It's not nice to fool Mother Nature the mods. (It feels like a Full Moon Friday here for some reason.)
