All this talk about Gold Kennedys--Where is Russ?

I went a couple or three years without reading this forum.

What happened to Russ? How come he doesn't weigh in on the Kennedy coins? He always had such succinct, 'pithy' posts.

    It's not the accent hair variety image

    Too bad though. I always enjoyed his posts.

    When the grading services wouldn't recognize his Kennedy "Dot Heads" as a variety (he had the market cornered on them btw) he faded into obscurity.

    Why would you hate to admit it? He's a good guy and one of the better posters here, ever.

    He still does a huge coin business as well as being one of the world's foremost experts and dealers of ornate glass paperweights, and yes, even the Chinese are counterfeiting them.

    Russ, while absent from the forums on a regular basis, will NEVER be obscure! image

    The "GodFather of Accented Hair Kennedy's" cannot ever be considered "obscure"!

    Russ has a bear skin rug in front of the fireplace.
    The bear is still alive.

    It's just afraid to move.

    But that was during his first lecture on the accented hair Kennedy. So it was very understandable. imageimage

    If anyone has a sense of humor and timing…. it's Russ. I had a few "misunderstandings", but he is one of the nicest guys I never met. Uber helpful any time I asked.

    I suspect Russ is selling the new JFKs as paper weights.
