It's great to see Mr. 1794 joining the forum, the copper god as he has been called. Have bought and sold some coins to each other over the years and he is a CLASS ACT........welcome. image

    Lakesamman, you are way too kind . I believe the term "copper god" is reserved for Mr. Blay! Anyway, thank you for the warm welcome. I just stumbled across the message boards last week and have found them very entertaining and educational as well. Hope you had a great time at the Long Beach Show. TomT.

    A big moose welcome to Mr. 1794 ! Finally had the pleasure of meeting him -- and many of his breathtaking coins -- at FUN and it was the highlight of my trip. If you like colorful proof Indian cents his handpicked gems will give you lockjaw.

    Welcome to the boards, BigMoose. You can never have enough copper gods on the boards! image

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

    Oh well, that's just great Shylock. I thought the highlight of your trip was seeing ME!image Well, just so you know, seeing the moose was MY highlight too......image

    In all seriousness, we need to get the moose facile with photography so we can all enjoy his monster coins!

    Tom - I mentioned the forum to Lakesammman about a year ago and he was kind of lukewarm about it, 'not really the forum type'. One year later he's got that cool custom variety .gif in his signature and posting away! With all its faults this place grows on you and is a nice way to stay connected to the hobby during the slow times.
  • BigMooseBigMoose Posts: 1,469 ✭✭✭
    I agree, Paul. I am having lots of fun with it so far. Sure beats trolling on ebay for hours on end.

    Wow! That looks like a relative! Lakesamm, I think you are doing exactly the right thing by sticking to gem full red business strike indian cents. Plus, you need to get started on a date set of full red late date large cents. The IHC proofs are hideous things and are better left to Shylock and BigMoose.
