    Wow! Talk about a dream job!

    You might feel differently when you have turn a profit on a consistent basis. When I was dealer, I was my own boss. When I messed up, I had no one to blame but me. When I did well, I got all the benefits. Working for someone else has its benefits, but I'm done with office politics, which good since I'm retired. I did a little contract work for dealers when I was in New England, going out to speak to groups on behalf of a dealer, and a bit of consulting, but that was it.

    It might be fun to work for them if they were near where I live, but I'm not.

In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?

    If you see the sharp buyers/sellers working at major shows, the way they plow through all the certifieds, not so much raw, it is pretty impressive. Like anything for those with the skills it becomes second nature after a while.

    would DLRC be interested in relocating to NJ? We are only 30 minutes from the CAC office and an hour from both stacks and heritage NY.

    I think it would be a bit easier for you to relocate my friend instead of 15 of us and our families...or you could commute on the train???

    Great question! Honestly, if you were a long-time collector with advanced numismatic knowledge, that's a great start. We're looking for someone who has a solid background but has the ability to fit into our system and learn as much as they can. Cataloging is more about research and language skills that it really is about anything else.

    If an experienced buyer/grader/consignment coordinator came along that fit into our culture, we could certainly be flexible enough to add that type of position as well, but that's not really what we're looking for in this posting.

    I've always been taught that if you hire good people that "fit" you sometimes have to make a place for them. We're certainly open to that at anytime the right person comes along...
