If you started a Numistmatic Reality Show (NRS), who would you

have as the main character(s), from this message board?
You would probably want to have someone who is really quirky (think of someone like Barry from Storage Wars).
Maybe someone who is "loved by all"....
Someone(s) who always seem to argue with everyone else and have to have it their way (may not want to answer this particular one
)
So, who would give the most entertainment, just from the way that they post on these forums?
I definitely know who I would nominate/want as the quirkiest, that I think would make for a great part of the show, but I will save that for later so as not to influence anyone....
And, if you post a forum handle, please also post the role that you would see them in for the show....

not need to be a factor as if it's a buying and selling type show then some will be "wins" and
some will be "losses".
I'd like to see a newby on the team. I'll nominate Steeler.
Experience would be a must on the team and an old gent like Bill Jones would be great
to be on the team.
Then a Penny Lady or Coinsarefun to add some spice would be great but I don't think the
wine drinking and poker playing could be included!

But who wants to see Coinosaurus negotiate for 2x2 holders with the Wizard guys? Not very entertaining
That should bring in the ratings!!

I don't care about ratings.
someone else posted this link a while back and it is a humorous list of internet personalities.
i have had MANY laughs from this list so many you all will as well
LOL
.
If that was the format, I'd want: Bill Jones, TomB, TDN, RYK, Barndog, Broadstruck, (as the comedian,) Wei, Seateddime, OnlyRoosies, Crazyhounddog, Mrpotatoheadd, Rick Snow, Cladking, 19Lyds, and Charmy (in various disguises playing the clueless widow.)
And, if she still visited the forum, Laura...

Eh. You'd have to go to a lot of different B&Ms to get any good stories. Same old, same old for most of them. Move metal, take a few percentage points off the top.
Hotel buyers who don't recognize rare coins? That's hardly news.......

Forum people. Laura has not been a forum member in a long time.
For quirkiness, and I hope he takes this right as I don't mean it to be insulting in the least, I would want to have BRADDICK on the show. That man comes up with the interesting coins that I could imagine and he isn't shy about submitting them. He also never complains about any of his risks. I respect that.
I would also like to see John (CRO) as a dealer on there, as I think his humor would shine through.
Others TBD, but definitely Braddick....

I'll take it!
Speaking of interesting. . . I actually scored two beauties today...
peacockcoins
Edited to add for role..narrator.
NGC registry V-Nickel proof #6!!!!
working on proof shield nickels # 8 with a bullet!!!!
RIP "BEAR"
I would also likely add 2 more characters....
Charmy (ThePennyLady) - as she can get anyone to get in a picture and can sweet talk anyone and anything
and
LakeSammmmmmmmman - He makes me laugh whenever I see him work his magic on deals....and he also, like Pat, goes eclectic on many of the numismatic items
So, so far, for pure entertainment purposes, I would want:
Braddick
LakeSammman
ThePennyLady

Good luck to her with the show.

My icon IS my coin. It is a gem 1949 FBL Franklin.
The guy was as honest as the day is long, was quite knowledgeable about what he collected, and was totally devoted to his young daughter.

We need a character who is ripping off widows and children by day and doctoring coins by night, fencing his work to other willing dealers and is defended by a ruthless attorney.
Fortunately, there's no one on the board who's qualified.
