    Ya I have been wondering about him lately.

    Did he buy it, I know he was thinking about it.

    I believe @Broadstruck has been busy taking care of a relative in need. I "talked" to him about a month ago. Coins and tokens appear to have taken a backseat for the time being.

    I was just thinking the same thing. He has been a great asset to these boards, and his posts are much missed. Hopefully all is well.

    ...I Agree that he is an asset to the boards...he single handedly taught me what dip residue looks like on a turned coin...Hope All is Well with him ;)

    I asked about him a month or so ago... did not have any replies... Hope all is well - he was a great contributor to the forum. Always great historical information with excellent pictures of interesting coins/tokens. Great guy to deal with as well. Cheers, RickO

    He has active sellers listings on eBay at the moment, so he is around, but I haven't noticed him buying lately. Much more important priorities right now I'm sure. Best wishes to him.

    I'm addicted to exonumia ... it is numismatic crack!

    He was taking about buying a farm, I think? Maybe he did. If so he's not gonna have time for anything except eating and sleeping.

    Hello y'all as some of you know I was taking care of my mother who suffered another heart attack & required bypass surgery. Prior to that I Just decided this new forum software wasn't for me and had stayed away so long I actually forgot my password. My biggest issue beyond the private message system is the internal search is so bad that I can not find any of my previous writings unless I get lucky using Goggle. I'm still actively collecting just slowed my buying down to items which are unique, I've never seen, or might not see again for years to come unless purchased. Not searching as much I've only missed one item I would have wanted which I'm still kicking myself about when I think about it. All in all I still interact with many members here regularly via email, phone, or text... Including the OP who I emailed less then a month ago about a piece seen on a obscure dealers site which I thought would fit his collection. Then again in my absence as many top threads are still about stickers I don't think I've missed anything here.

    To Err Is Human.... To Collect Err's Is Just Too Much Darn Tootin Fun!

    @Broadstruck ... Good to see you post...Hope your Mother is recovering well.... Stick around, the software is not bad once acclimated. I miss your excellent posts with history .... Cheers, RickO
