Say, if I just went ALL IN on CAC instead of quitting coins......

I could have an "INVESTMENT"
Birds would sing
The sun would shine
People would respect me
I would be honored beyond all imagination on the forum.
Auction houses would start following me around.
I would be a true NUMISMATIST.
Peace would guide the planets
Nobody would steal my lunch money again or kick sand in my face.
Hmmmmmm................

Women would find you more attractive.
(In fact, I'm suddenly drawn to you....)
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
You need to decide weather you are a collector, an investor, or neither! Still trying to figure out where you or going or what your motives are with all your topics recently!
When you're getting more gratification from your suffering than your coins, it's likely getting to be about that time
Want even more pain?
Sell what you've got without any CAC processing.
Pain is inevitable; suffering is optional.
If you choose to remain a victim, you now qualify as a volunteer.
I've got a Willie Nelson lyric that fits in well, but I'm going Zen, not country, right now.
Willie and me both have us a bit of a "third-eye blind" thing going on.
For one time this is one I understand!

OK... I am now in the twilight zone......

Found the glitch. The CAC coins are snubbing the non CAC coins and the entire box is becoming unruly.
After they "have it out" I might better be able to judge the merits of this whole idea.
Me too, but some people take it seriously.

If your beaned coins don't walk, talk, & chew bubble gum your just a Sticker Chump not a Numismatist
They equate. Actually, no they don't. I pity ole Col. Greene.
No stickers.
I understand there is a movement afoot to strip him of the "numismatist" designation as he might not have had completely pristine material in his cigar box.
We should all join to defeat this campaign.
I mean he just didn't know any better.
Neither did I until a short while ago but I've now seen the light.

Topstuff, the coins you have left, infrequently add, and show us are nice pieces regardless of the frames or labels.
To me, it's the coin and the price, and how hard the issue is to find nice.
When resale time eventually comes, is when I'll think about frames and labels.
Hopefully the buyers will enjoy the rarity and value of the appearance as much as possible in their then-currently fashionable clothes.

Has anyone ever seen Colonel Jessup and
and Paul Nugget together at the same time?
I have a sneaking suspicion they're one in the
same person, based solely on their linguistic
ability and verbal nuances.
Legend Auction's Greg Cohen's son Benny gets Paul and I confused, which sorta proves there are two of us. Which doesn't mean we aren't the same person.
I actually bought my very first $20 (84-CC unc-ish) from Paul through the window at MTB (1972). Our signatures on the invoice are clearly not legible, which may further validate your observation

Paul's wife, "The Sainted Beth", is, however, quite emphatic about pronounced differences in our mustard-stains.
Paul 's linguistic abilities are limited to Scrabble. He is incapable of forming multi-paragraph sentences.
Also not probative.
To the OP: There's an online auction in Ulan Bator in 45 minutes.
When you've got 48 hours clean and sober, let us know how your "issues" are doing.

You better not be trash talking the Paul who is also "otis" on an obscure forum that is very secret to join.

While I'm typing, a thought occurs to me.
What if one's CAC coins decide they're too good for the collector and decide to tarnish badly?
Then they should beat him/her about the head for not storing them properly.
He may not make the Ulan Bator online auction. Rumor has it he's heading to Chimoubagau, Quebec, to do some ice fishing.

ColonelJessup, how are you going to collect your winnings bids? Is there a Mongolian Express?
Check out some of my 1794 Large Cents on www.coingallery.org
There's a place within a mile that delivers, and their fermented yak milk is pro-biotic and 14%.

Hmmm... That does sound sorta Nugget
Trolling @MrEureka, if you pay me $5 bucks I won't tell you the next Nugget story.
How did I miss that one?
I'll tell you what. I'll buy you a $10 lunch if you don't tell me the next TWO Nugget stories. Deal?

And CAC would bring ethics charges against you for fondling your green beans.

topstuf - you're shifting collecting approach makes me dizzy.....
