Count me in, Kathy!
That's not a very fair question to answer. There are far too many nice people on the forums who contribute a great deal.
Bill Jones, Keets, Ricko, where does it end!
For that matter, Kathy, our PM conversations have been very pleasant and I personally feel that you will have much more to contribute.
Cheers
Bob
Count me in,
Now, for another entry: There are so many members to comment on but I'm going to pick RogerB as #1 because he digs up stuff in his posts here that would have probably remained unknown to us and general numismatics for decades to come.
Good Work @Outhaul @Insider2 don't expect you have to pick 1 agree to that. I just like to hear the Good things folks have done for others. Even the little things help a lot. I even appreciate the critics it make us all grow.

My favorite raw coin would be this 1839-O over O 10C No Drapery RPM FS-501 104a-1 that was given to me by Secret Santa a couple years ago. This coin stirred my interest in varieties and has not let up since.

I would like to recognize @robec for his amazing talent in imagery of some of my coins that I have. The quality of his imagery really brings out the details in my coins (big images) and there is usually something that I did not see before when I receive the images.

@Kkathyl ...Count me in and thank you for the generous giveaway. Cheers, RickO
My favorite raw coin.....Cheers, RickO
My Favorite raw coin is a 1895-O Morgan that was previously slabbed ICG AU-53, it now resides in my Morgan Date set Dansco album. I love the look of it and it fits in well with the rest of my date set that is MS-63-ish.
I don't know a whole lot of people on this forum so I'd like to recognize you @Kkathyl for generously offering this give away for everyone on this forum. Thank You!

There are many splendid members on here, I will mention @lordmarcovan by name because he is a friend, he makes great threads and indeed he gave me the bust dime I just posted.
These are the best coin boards to be a member of!

Count me in. Here's a recent raw purchase, it's a common date but a nice grade. Photo by @FadeToBlack who always does a great job with his photography.

It is difficult to choose a single member that has contributed to my numismatic experience and knowledge.
@TomB is the consummate professional, always sharing knowledge of coins, detailed evaluations and great pictures.
@RogerB continually contributes to our historical understanding of coin history, mint history and associated topics.
@BillJones contributes greatly to our knowledge of coin history and quality from his extensive experience.
All of these members have helped me and educated me. Thank you one and all... Cheers, RickO
Count me it! And thanks for the chance! Picture coming soon!

It's hard to pick Just one member that has deserved to have something nice said about them, there are so many helpful folks here.
I guess I would say that @ricko is ALWAYS available to talk about various subjects with me, thanks Rick

"count me in"
top right coin, the one with the cud...favorite!
saying something nice about another forum member is pretty easy. MrHalfDime is always willing to share his knowledge directly with me and indirectly with people on this forum, other forums, those who read the official journals of the Liberty Seated Collectors Club and the John Reich Collectors Society, and likely many other coin research/discussion groups and organizations. Plus, he's a Patriots fan that remembers when they really sucked and was still rooting for them back then.
The prize should be provided intact to the winner of the giveaway. Sets deserve to be intact (a set is more likely to be retained by its owner if it is intact, IMO).
Please:
"count me in"

As for something nice to say, I'll have to think about it,
Since it is against my nature.
BHNC #203
okay, okay, since Insider2 gave me a like, I'll say that he posts the strangest threads.
Oh, I have to say something nice....
thinking...
still thinking.

You point whore! That time you earned it. Now you need to write "count me in" to get both chances.
Count me in and thanks for the chance!

Here is one of my favorite raw coins. Why? It is nothing special, just a really nice 1879-S Morgan that has, sadly, been cleaned. I like it because it is a reminder that things are often better left in their natural state and sometimes despite the most well intended efforts sometimes end up for the worse.

It is hard to identify a single member over the years, many have stuck around, some have moved on to other things and sadly some have headed west. I have only met in person a couple of members here, but have developed friendships with many of them and have been schooled by many others on any number of numismatic topics. Accented Hair Kennedy's? Thanks Russ. Yap Money? Thanks Lord M. Risks of driving on bald tires? Thanks Bongo Bongo. What happened on this day in 1898 at the Mint? Thanks Roger B. To CAC or not? Jury is still out on that one! Anyway my point is that for me, too many to just pick one.
K
Oh...and Merry Christmas to you too!!!
Count me in.
Roger B. for his masterful break-through research, and Tom. B. for his perennially cordial, thoughtful, wise and well-crafted guidance.
Lot of other folks for their warmth, friendship and encouragement, past and present. Remarkable how a hobby brings together folks, often with nil in common other than their passion for coins, who otherwise would never have met and come to enjoy one another.
Here's a warning parable for coin collectors...
Count me in!
@Type2 bought a few of my palladium coins this year, and the deal went very smoothly, and I would like to thank him for that! That helped free up some cash for other purchases. I don't have a ton of raw coins in my collection, so will post one that I bought raw, and graded recently.
Count me in too!
Favorite raw coin?
Who doesn't love gold?
Something nice about another member? How about ricko, he can be found on almost every conversation, always contributes a straight forward sensible point of view, and has some very good advice to many many questions!!!
I think one winner is nice but split the prize and let there be more winners!!
Thanks for a giveaway Kathy~! That's really nice of you....Merry Christmas!
What a great giveaway. Count me in and Merry Christmas to all. Sadly, some of my favorite people on here are gone.
My favorite right now. I also have a 1786 New Jersey Copper that is very rare and a super cool coin. I don't have a good picture.
My favorites on the boards are:
@BillJones - Always willing to share his knowledge and has some of the coolest coins.
@ricko - Always has something positive, encouraging and kind to say (unless we are talking about tarnish)
@RogerB - Love your research and how you share it with the rest of us.
The PM forum - They are a rowdy bunch but always seem to keep it civil, entertaining and fun.
Count me in !
Thank you for the chance.
Count me in please. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of you!
