For what it's worth....

I signed up here 23 years ago today.

While I still visit on a daily basis, I find it less and less likely that I'll post anything of consequence. What drive I have remaining is focused on other venues.

Old habits die hard. I'll keep a continued eye on everything. HSG

    Congrats on your membership anniversary. You have me beat by close to three months.

    You have posted some of the most dramatic images/photos over the years here. I appreciate them. Off hand, I am not certain how many have survived given the forum changes /updates.
    In any event, you are among a handful of the real legendary coin photographers here.

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    Congrats on the anniversary! I've quite enjoyed your posts over the years. The discovery of the hidden cache inside of the Goetz master's cabinet is one of my favorite posts on this forum of all times. Thank you for bringing us along and sharing your amazing numismatic journey.

    I always enjoyed your posts as well.
    Forum has changed a lot for sure.
    I used to spend a lot of time here. Not so much now.

    I like the forum, but some people get stuck "Terminally online" and put too much stock into internet spaces.
    It's just supposed to be fun hobby posting.
    I know the 40k discords get pretty heated and that's just painting war dollies and playing games with them

    Llamas and alpacas are camels. They aren't like camels, or related. They are camels. When was anyone going to tell me this?! How long had Bill Nye been holding out on us?

    Happy Anniversary Cacheman! If I remember right you used to have a nice group of Gothic Crowns.

    Good to see you posting, cacheman. It appears I had my 23rd anniversary 2 months ago. I had no idea until I looked. I know he and I appeared for the first time about the same time frame.

    This post brought out all the OG’s. Will be 20 years for me this summer. Was a young husband and father when I signed up here. Now retired and empty nester.
