Hello, a lurker emerges

Hello all, I have been lurking here on and off for several years and finally decided to join. The knowledge and insight I have picked up here has been invaluable. Reading some of the barbs and insults that have been passed back and forth have also given me endless hours of enjoyment. My collecting interest have run the gamut form working on a 20th century type set to collecting two cent peices and shield nickels to MS 65 FBL franklins as well as a ton of the "modern crap commemoratives" (which I love as well). Each you my resolution is to consolidate and focus my collecting efforts but I never seemed to do it. My latest hunt has been for $25 proof platinum peices in original packaging. I think they are an outstanding value as they have extremelylow mintages and can be had for very little over melt (except for the 2004 of course).
Luck happens when preparation meets opportunity.

Agreed. Having PM operational allows you to maximize the "enjoyment" of those insults and barbs.
Yeah...you should say hello to Russ in a PM.
