    Questions are good although you may not always like the answer but many people here only have good intentions.
    If you find your main area of collecting post pictures!
    Pictures speak volumes.
    Seek advice before buying too.

    This is the best place to learn about Numismatics, in my opinion. Welcome to the forum! I have been collecting off since I was a teenager, but got into it seriously maybe 15 years ago or so. The fun thing about numismatics is that you are constantly learning and finding new stuff all the time. For example, I didn't know fractional currency or Military payment certificates existed until just a couple of years ago, and now collect them both. I have always gravitated toward the unusual - half cents, 2 cent and 3 cent coins, 20 cent pieces, etc. Anyway, collect what you enjoy and what grabs your attention!

    Welcome! Advice to new retirees, stay active. Get off the couch. I inadvertently, gained too much weight sitting around and enjoying NOT WORKING! Not good! Maybe a few people know what I mean.

    Lots of knowledge to be found here. Have fun and good luck selling the coins you inherited. All I got from my dad was guns!

    Yes, welcome! And thank you for providing information to the ignorant for 30+ years. Your profession doesn't get enough respect and the situation is getting worse. We've come a long way since Walter Chronkite retired, mostly in the wrong direction.

    Caution: Please don't make the mistake of posting a damaged coin and asking (worse yet, telling) us that it's an error. Some readers take great offence to that innocent action and tend to overreact. But, none of them have welcomed you here, yet, so maybe we're OK. They are not really interested in welcoming but rather criticizing and picking fights. Ignore them if they rear their ugly heads, but so far so good.

    That's why I was careful with my reply, my friend. No parties or candidates mentioned, no networks in particular denigrated. Just bemoaning what's happened to the craft and the industry I gave most of my life to.

    Welcome aboard!

    I'll just leave this here:

    The fairness doctrine of the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC), introduced in 1949, was a policy that required the holders of broadcast licenses both to present controversial issues of public importance and to do so in a manner that fairly reflected differing viewpoints. In 1987, the FCC abolished the fairness doctrine, prompting some to urge its reintroduction through either Commission policy or congressional legislation. The FCC removed the rule that implemented the policy from the Federal Register in August 2011.

    @allnewsanchor Couldn't agree with you more. We are already in the gray area so I won't expound any further on my thoughts.

    We can stray a little off topic (as that is the nature of a conversation) as long as we don't get overtly political, bring up political topics, talk about one side vs the other, etc. So, I think I am probably done with this topic for now ;)

    Yes you will absorb tremendous numismatic thought and material here.

    John Adams accumulated some amazing coins.

    He could not have anticipated the disproportionate influence of the special interests and lobbyists.

    Once news became a potential profit center permeated with opinion that was the end of fairness. We do capitalism hardcore here and very efficiently.
