Soliciting Interview Questions

Hi Everyone,

I own www.numismatichub.com and we are currently producing an interview series that we have deemed "Minds of Numismatists." In the coming weeks we will be publishing interviews with several leading numismatists and in an effort make the interviews more enjoyable and entertaining, we are coming to the boards asking for some question solicitations. If you want to pose a question for any of the listed people, please do so in this thread or PM me. Please make sure you dictate who the question is geared to. I know a couple of these men are members here as well, so keep that in mind. Also, let's keep it numismatic image

    Would you be willing to give all the coins you can't sell to Larry? image

    I'd simply ask them what they thought the most significant event to the numismatic community has been in the past 3, 5, 10 years... and what they think has cost the most harm to the hobby in the recent past and what will cause the most harm in the upcoming future.

    coin doctoring is always a healthy topic.

    Also, their opinion on the affect of internet shopping (i.e. ebay) on collecting popularity and prices.

    The price of gold is set by faith, or lack of, in the currency it is priced in.

    My favorite question for interviewees is - "If you were a crayola crayon, what color would you be?". The funny thing is over half the people I ask this to actually attempt to answer it! LOL!!!
