    Hey, congrats on winning the trip! Have a great time.

    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.

  • StuartStuart Posts: 9,761 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Thanks for all of your kind words and good wishes. My wife Debbie and I are really looking forward to this Las Vegas trip, and we are most appreciative of PCGS' generosity and their kindness.

    What a wonderful prize to win!!! image

    It isn't free so I am not going. image

    I don't think my dealer is going either (one of those finalist for the world series)

    I do think congrats are in order for your free trip to this. I hope you have a great time.

    Thanks!

    Ditto:... Plus, the "Queen Bee" says we don't possess the almighty greenbacks to attend. She'd rather take the kids to Wildwood and Hershey Park this summerimage Guess there's no argument there!image
    What is money, in reality, but dirty pieces of paper and metal upon which privilege is stamped?

    Razor: Thanks for your post. Sorry that we won't get to meet up in Las Vegas this time. I'll prepare a show report after the show to share with forum members.
