    Some threads show that are still common topics today.... Dip or not to dip, first coin show, how accurate are pop reports, Unusual coin?.....Yep... the more things change, the more they remain the same. Cheers, RickO

    I believe coincob was one of the “infamous” members. I believe @TomB mentioned him on the thread about longtime members.
