    roadrunner not being around is a big loss.
    Longacre. Saintguru. RYK occasionally pops in but has other interests. TDN has far less of a presence here than before.
    A number of dealers that used to be on here don't bother any more. pistareen, Regulated, FinallyHere, njcoincrank. At least Laura is over on the CAC forum although it can be pretty sleepy over there and I only check it on occasion.

    What happened to roadrunner? IMO, he's a SUPERSTAR poster on seated coins. I often thought that a compilation of his posts here would become one of the most insightful and informative books on the history of the Liberty seated coins in the marketplace. He was a fantastically informative, "superb gem" poster here. I hope he returns.

    I agree about Roadrunner!

    What happened to @ManifestDestiny

    He had a lot of posts this year but now his seated quarter registry set is gone and GRFC is selling them.

    No idea about the registry but wrong @Manifest_Destiny . Looks like he was last on in September.

    Does anyone have his email?

    I don’t, but if you haven’t already done so, why not try messaging him?

    I just realized that he came back for one post in the previous page with no explanation. Someone must have said something to him.

    Gone almost 7 years. I remember he was working on a book about die chips of all things. He was cataloging coins with die chips!

    I hope he’s okay. It wouldn’t be like him to break from social media I’m sure It’s a big driver of his business marketing.

    He has an employee that frequents the board. Not sure his name but maybe he could chime in. Dan was a no show at the Rosemont show in September where he was a show sponsor. No new coins have been added to his dealer site since around the August ANA. I hope things are ok.

    True… However it does seem unusual for an enthusiastic coin dealer like @PeakRarities to drop from sight.

    He lives in Florida so I would expect him to set up at the FUN show unless circumstances prevent him from doing so.

    K6AZ...
    I had been to Erics house, Bought some Morgan's and kept up till my health took a turn. I just found out a few months ago he had passed.
    This was back when the boards were the only place to interact online. He was blasting about "He who shan't be Named" when I took a couple ACG coins over to let him have a look... Then we went through a bank bag of Morgans he and his father bought.. Jeeze almost 30 years ago... He was a genuine guy... Are there many from the lawsuits still around?
