I joined the forum a little more than year after the passing of Bear. There have been a couple of revived threads which has his comments, which are enjoyable to say the least.
In regards to the thread title, I can wholeheartedly agree. I appreciate coins that did their job of circulating, although briefly, in commerce.

Some coins like the Indian Head $2.50 and $5, an AU58 might technically have never seen circulation. It might also be a better buy than a MS62 or MS63 that's been upgraded from an AU58.

I can certainly appreciate a good, key date in AU 58.
A LOT of wisdom there........RIP Bear.

Abe was part of what is really great about these forums. Wish there were more "Bears" in the world.
