Greg where are you, we miss your articles !!
How about an article about all 1804 Dollars or Type Sets ?
...you'se two should flip a coin to determine who buy's Coin Week outright...and then give 'em a raise
Strange that Greg and Laura semi-retired at the same time. I mean, not that it's any of my business...

Could be he hooked up with Caddyshack and both are working on the PGA tour.
I got stood up by him at the last Pogue auction. Haven't heard since, hope is o.k.
LOL, you are evil.

YUCK! I would much rather be getting painful dental work.
He is forming a Rap Group...
He's run off and joined a street gang called MS-67. You've probably heard of the MS-13 gang on the news, but MS-67 is the real deal.
anyone hear anything?
No articles recently
This is worrisome. Though I am not a fan of how he links his articles to virtually everything he posts here, I am a definite fan of his articles. I sure hope all is OK with him.
His articles are usually useful and informative. Too bad they are MIA.
Im am worried now too, will write him an eMail
I did a few days ago - no response yet (which is not unusual)
I hope he's just on vacation. Hope to hear from him soon.
I heard he was put out to pasture by his bosses. His fake news and pissing people off finally caught up to him.
There is a lot you don't know about him. Just ask the hard working people at lot viewing in NYC for Stacks or Heritage. He never buys but always rudely comes in just before close on a Saturday and makes these very tired folks stay.
Most dealers will not talk to him as his articles contain fake facts or wrong opinions.
Plus, the guy is a media hog always out to promote himself.
If he stopped all the nonsense he actually has a chance to gain respect. If he loves coins that much he should apply to Stacks or Heritage and become a cataloger (if either would take him). I only find a few articles I can tolerate every so often.
I hope he is okay...
Maybe has found a girlfriend
He said he was a player

That's right.
so he is hiding for some reason
None. I contacted Charles Morgan at Coin Week and all he would say is that they haven't published any articles of his in a while.
Exactly- that's why I'm wondering where he is...
Hope that he returns.
Hope he's just either busy analyzing something, or taking a break. Best wishes either way..

Maybe he decided to pull a Taxay.

I too have not been around much as of late. I do not compare myself to Greg. I just thought I would take a la bunch of mini breaks after my health issues a year ago and
...and enjoy the collection I already have acquired.
I enjoyed his articles, but always wondered where he drew his facts. Most seemed credible, but to be as scholarly as presented, there didn't seem to be enough reference material. That's non necessarily unusual with rags though.
Just heard from Greg. He assures me that he is not dead, but did not elaborate.

Good to hear
Analyst draws a lot of information from corresponding directly with collectors. It's an important resource, because a lot of that information would not get written down otherwise.
Most all of us us on this forum appreciate "Analyst's" viewpoint on this forum. Greg Reynolds has great historical perspective of our obsession, and on which we rely for perspective.
Hopefully he will return to our forum.

Although I am still absent from the coin scene, I will return. I have been working on tasks unrelated to coins. I also need to think carefully about future directions. I am very appreciative of the positive thoughts expressed here about my articles and skills. The recent remarks relating to me on this forum are much nicer than I expected them to be. For many of your remarks, I am truly grateful.
Caddyshack:
All articles published on CoinWeek are carefully reviewed in regard to facts. There is no 'fake news' on CoinWeek.com! Caddyshack (perhaps someone in New Jersey?) has here posted 'fake news.' I voluntarily stopped contributing articles to CoinWeek, for a combination of personal and professional reasons. There is a good chance that more of my articles will appear on CoinWeek in the future.
CaddyShack:
This is a false statement. Most dealers will talk to me. I have communicated on innumerable occasions with many leading dealers and with leading officials at auction firms. I am continuing to communicate with leading dealers and collectors.
PRC:
I was never hiding. This is a false, harsh and unfairly misleading remark.
CoinOsaurus:
Yes, in regard to rare or at least very scarce coins, serious collectors are the core of the coin community and the culture of coin collecting. It is important to not use facts to deliberately mislead people, as many dealers do.
I pride myself on seeking to understand the preferences and values of collectors, on being honest with collectors, and on communicating information and opinions that I sincerely believe coin buyers may find to be valuable or otherwise educational. I also aimed to inform or entertain readers other than serious collectors, people who are interested in rare coins for a wide variety of reasons. I hope that I have succeeded.
Welcome back Analyst!
I'm glad you're back and hope all is well.
A shame that you put any effort into responding to that now banned salty fool.
I enjoy and look forward to your contributions.

No comment. Just a question; can a person be banned from the forum because they liked reading the posts of a member who was banned? The reason I ask is because, ah, I like it here but if what I'm thinking is correct then, ah, ....Hey I gotta' go.
I would have preferred a more definite answer but I'll take what I get and...."Proceed with Caution."
Greg,
I hope that you always find a friendly home for you on this forum. You fill a special place as you are not a dealer, nor are you a (significant?) collector. But your insight into the hobby of coin collecting is well respected and revered. No money for you posting your opinions on this forum, but linking us to your opinions is a win-win situation.

Hydrant:
What is Hydrant talking about? If it is true that Afford was earlier a member of this forum with another name, there is no need to harp upon this point. Within reason, each member should be allowed to reveal as much about himself as he feels comfortable revealing.
As for reading the posts of members who have been banned or suspended, I take seriously the remarks put forth by current and past members of this forum in their respective posts. A central aspect of this forum is that every rule-abiding member has the opportunity to publicly express a viewpoint. I am glad that the moderators have clamped down on malicious posts.
In terms of posts that are clearly inaccurate in a factual sense, unbeknownst to the moderators, it is important for the members to police ourselves and discourage the posting of false statements. It is especially important to deter the posting of factually false statements or abrasive insults that are hurtful to other people. There are members here who very much wish to learn or wish to engage in healthy debates that have educational value.
OldIndian:
First, I have no idea as to the identity of OldIndianNutKase. Second, I am very appreciative of his remarks. When my hiatus began, I wondered how many people would really care. I am very glad that some knowledgeable people do care about my articles, reporting, research and opinions.
Third, I am not here to advertise. I really enjoy discussions about rare coins and other numismatic topics.
Fourth, as a matter of disclosure, I now feel a need to emphasize a point that I never before emphasized on this forum. For years, it was revealed on CoinWeek that I have engaged in consulting work regarding rare coins, "available for private consultations."
During my lifetime, I have been a dealer to a minor extent at best. Most years, I engaged in zero dealing, Nevertheless, I have had dealer-clients and collector-clients, including leading collectors. I prefer consulting for collectors. I have revealed this activity, in passing, on this forum in the past, mostly in self-defense in threads where some members have declared that my views do not matter as I am an observer not a player. Consulting work has made me more involved than most 'players' realize.
Also, dealers tend to have a conflict of interest in regard to their own respective inventories, a conflict that consultants do not have. Even so, I have thought about becoming a true dealer, though I will probably emphasize consulting more than any other activity. I have not finalized plans for the future. Of course, I will be writing more articles about coins.

What's a "leading collector" and should I aspire to be one when I grow up?
Analyst, my post was an attempt at humor.
No more so than yearning to be a "leading dealer."
