Interesting read.

Narratives are some of the most enjoyable reads you can find. They're even better coming from successful people with humble beginnings. Thanks for sharing!

That's a great story, but not quite as good as John Ford's story about Mrs. Norweb and Walter Breen's candy bar.

JJF took a great deal of satisfaction in degrading others.

There is no malice in what Harvey shares, and much that's useful. He's been my friend and mentor for 40 years. He has given much good advice, some of which I've taken

Cool story.

More about EHR Green at Wikipedia.

Thanks for posting as I enjoyed reading it.

Although there was a family dispute on the coins EHR's famed stamp collection was sold at public auction in the 1940's.

I always look forward to Harvey Stack's commentary when I open my S-B emails. He's had a wonderful career in numismatics, and knows how to tell a good story.

That was a cool story. Thanks for posting the link.

Great post, thanks!

I enjoyed the read and then I got confused...the title is remembering 1954 but then says the Col died in 1936 (shortly after meeting him I guess).

What did I miss? Maybe my reading comprehension is off tonight. Cool story though!

That was a good read! Thank you for sharing!

Great story.

The colonel sounds like a real character. But a genuine good guy in spite (rather than because) of his money. Harvey tells a good story.

Very interesting. Can you imagine having that kind of money to spend during the depression??

the title is remembering 1954 but then says the Col died in 1936 (shortly after meeting him I guess).

The story makes sense even if the title is off.

Great story!
Is his collection pedigreed?

<< <i>Great story!

Much of Col. Green's collection can be provenanced, according to this July 2011 Coin World article.

So you agree then??? It should be remembering 1936 then, right? Am I the only one that noticed or thinks this?
