I hope the red carpet has been rolled out and we await his words of wisdom, original research as well as practical insights into the realties and complexities of numismatics as it has evolved in 2026. Many moons ago he was regularly sharing his pearls of knowledge, then something happened, I don't know what. No doubt he is glad to be back in the saddle as it were at PCGS forums, the premier site for rigorous numismatic analysis.
I just added my name "to Be Notified" at a book site for his new hard copy book "Restrikes+Novodels+Patterns." I have several of his other works and enjoy reading and using them for reference.

I suspect "reference" is the reason collectors wanted printed books.
