in U.S. Coin Forum

I have participated in this forum for over 21 years. The forum itself has changed considerably over that time.
Software, content, members, forums etc. I have learned a tremendous amount about coins through this venue.
I have also made friends and benefited from transactions here.
This forum is an amazing resource for all coin collectors. World class experts post here, right alongside new collectors
and YN’s. Members are highly active, and daily posts of all types provide information, humor, and dialogue.
I encourage member collectors to spread the word to others who collect that may not be aware of this great resource.
This post marks a milestone for me along the path of forum participation.
Though I would say, the more significant milestones have been in the form of knowledge and friendships.
Thank you PCGS for this forum. Thank you fellow collectors for your contributions and participation.
Cheers, RickO

    @ricko, since the 75th anniversary is the diamond anniversary, you deserve 1000 diamonds for your contributions over the years. You are consistently positive and supportive ... even with your aversion to the type of environmental damage so many pay dearly for (i.e. toning, for those new to the Board). Thank you for your posts, your humor, and your humanity.

    You always take time to comment on most anyone's thread. Even if it is outside your interest or it is just another newbie with a "dumb question." Without participation, this forum would be quite the boring place to hang out.
    Thanks for being you!

    I’ve never seen even one post of yours that didn’t make me go “Yep, that’s about right, well said.” All your posts have been legit and well thought out.

    I do love my toning though, just sayin, haha, but your assessments of it are pretty spot on. Thanks ricko

    Congrat's Ricko ... and thank you.

    Thank you for being one of those members that is here and part of the great fabric of this place. Your posts are consistent, with humor or wisdom or wit ... and always appreciated (by me at least).

    And thank you too for being here when I got here the first time ... and when, after a long, long time away, as I cracked the door open again ... for being one of the ones still keeping the light on.
