Home World & Ancient Coins Forum

Some thoughts and a special thanks

While I have not paid attention to such matters as the number of posts I have made or anyone else for that matter,
I do recognize that as collectors, we should consider ourselves fortunate that this form exists. This will be post number 10000 for me. I believe a special thanks to those at Collectors Universe and PCGS is in order for making this forum possible as well as for their efforts at being very reasonable hosts.

Collecting World Coins, in my view, really represents an amazing challenge as well as the opportunity to learn about a wide range of topics ranging from history, culture and design. Further, there are very attractive World Coins that are truly affordable... not everything is expensive nor do all series that one chooses to undertake have to be done seriously.

I have enjoyed the journey so far and I plan to continue because the best is yet to come...

Best wishes in connection with assemblying the coins that make this the hobby that it is.

Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    Well said!

    Its an understatement for me to say that this forum has played an integral part in the growth of my interest in the darkside. My hats off to PCGS for the opportunity to lurk, share, observe, learn, and laugh.
