    Yeah, right.

    Could you provide closeups of the date over the denticles, wear on the wings, and tell us which TPG service slabbed this? It looks like a business strike to me (as in the business of eBay).

    Of course. It does come with a Certificate of Authenticity from the NCM, right?

    I didn't know that Jimmy Durante collected coins, or that Barry Goldwater, Jr. is a Durante fan.

    Hi,
    it was ok when you said it to me?
    I am SO glad you called me a name (been waiting since yesterday for someone to) as I can now point out that I remained pretty nice and did not resort to childish name-calling or personal attacks (except those imagined) in any of the previous threads connected to this NOT95, unlike some people image

    Best and thanks!!!

    Well Billy (aka twit). Unlike you, I actually know what I'm talking about.

    When you've owned some proof Morgans and have grown up enough to stop accusing people of scams when there are none, I'll respect you. Until then you're a little POS.

    Get it?

    I think I "got it" the first time I saw that 95.

    Hmmm - looks like real white "frosting" on a piece of chocolate cake - I bet it's a "real" Proof image - maybe even "Mint Made" -

    Hey Wolf359--- I HAVE OWNED ALL THE PROOF MORGANS and I don't remember calling you any names just because there was and honest disagreement last night. My name is Bill not Billy but regardless, there is no excuse for name calling and I'm sick of your attitude. You were wrong, live with it!!image

    No Nut, I'm not wrong. Billy started it by accusing people of scamming. Not me. Why are you defending him?

    Is that a $10 Liberian replica Morgan proof?

    You know what? When you start name calling and personal insult, it 's not worth it. I will not respond to this anymore.

    I don't defend anyone but myself and your words were "you twit". What are you trying to prove by calling someone a bad word? Insults are not helping you make whatever point you are trying to make Sir.

    Mr. Eureka, I think it's a perfectly beautiful PF70 DCAM. I'm gonna have to sell my 1895 because this one is nicer.

    I knew this subject would come to name calling sooner or later because someone was going to be proven wrong on their area of expertise- I thinks it's time for those that were wrong to just say so or let it go.

    btw...yes it is a 1895 Dollar authentic reproduction.

    I read all of the twit's [errr - Billy's] posts and don't think he went overboard at all. There is absolutely nothing wrong with taking on the authenticity of a coin posted on this forum. At no time did he accuse coppercoins of doing anything wrong.

    And the sad fact is that when anyone makes absolute statements around here, they tend to get their head handed to them on a platter.

    Others might disagree with you. Mr. Billy is a trouble-maker. I suggest he steer clear of me in the future.

    So true.

    I find it funny and sad that this all started over an image.
    What's really great about the whole deal is the passion we all share for the hobby.

    Maybe we can all give each other some space and just agree that we don't agree. image
    OK. I'll shut up. Carry onimage
