Hi all - I have been on the sidelines since COVID. Now it’s 2025. What have I missed?
I seldom check PM's but do check emails often jason@seated.org

Welcome back. I, too, took a break for a few years, but came back in late 2021. My break lasted about 5 years, though I wish I had never needed to take the break. Life happens...
Also, nice coin!
You missed a lot of arguing about vaultbox and CAC
And some good chatter and photos of coins too.
You missed a lot of great parking lot finds 😂, and a lot of Mint errors, that were not Mint errors……..
Successful buys on BST board from NotSure, Nankraut, Yorkshireman, Astrorat, Ikeigwin(2x), Bob13, Outhaul, coinbuf, dpvilla, jayPem, Sean1990, TwoKopeiki, bidask, Downtown1974, drddm, nederveit2
Silver dropped below $15 during COVID. It’s over $30 today. But don’t tell Blitzdude …. he won’t believe it. Of course the last ounce I bought from the mint was $104.
What’s new looks old.
welcome back
also missed a lot of trolling
Welcome back Jason. I remember you from a little over a decade ago. I took a long break starting in 2013, but came back right before / as COVID hit.
Good coins are still in high demand, dreck is still dreck ... and people still argue about the damndest things here. There's always a new hustle (this time with pricey "mystery boxes" no less), and while some new members have come, some have passed as well (RIP @ricko
).
Oh wait ... there's a new grading service, so you'll hear PLENTY about that!
So, thinking about it ... I guess nothing has really changed too much!

Show off!
Got the 1841 No Drapery?
Welcome back 🙏
Rather than scroll back to click like I will just say Great Coin. James
Good to see you again. What have you missed? The usual controversies; plenty of gtg coins, concerns about bringing PCGS trueview images back up to snuff, great results at auction vs. lackluster ones. This site has the most serious coin collectors in the world so that high standard is constantly being upheld by regulars here.
Several long time respected members passed on.
yes, Phil left for GreatCollctions and trueviews haven't fully recovered yet
Plus we've lost a lot of great collectors sadly, like Ricko.
have you heard about the fairmont hoard?
How about the counterfeit omega gold coins thread? That should take you awhile.
Actually, I do.

i think someone has a complete set of hubs for classic gold. the rest can be deduced from there
