I suspect that I'm not the only one who is extremely impressed by and greatly enjoys Amanda's posts.

    This hobby needs more YNs like Leianna. She seems to have a very good eye for coins. How old is she?

    No Mark, you're not alone.

    Having a YN of my own, I can't help but do the "comparison" thing when I read other YN's posts. Amanda's threads/posts have inspired him to "be like her" when he gets older.

    As I said in a thread I posted last week, Is anyone else impressed with the quality of the YN's around here, the future of the hobby in particular and the future in general is bright when you think of someone like Amanda.



    As for her age, She mentioned at one time that she is entering her freshman year of college this fall.

    Amanda is something. I posted a couple of holdered Buffalo nickels, and she nailed the grade on one exactly, and was one point off on the other. A very nice kid, too!

    A YN learning - that is a good thing

    an old fart here complaining about the YN is a bad thing.

    I had a discussion about an e-bay posting I felt was suspect, and frankly she was very rude. pbfloyd.

    If you are going to make an accusation- need to back this up with proof.

    She is a knowledgeable YN- and IF she was rude- well she has the right to be- it's the internet-

    you go young lady- and ignore old farts that want to start trouble.

    Not only are Amanda's post quite insightful and intelligent beyond her years but so are many other YN's.

    For example p8nt, notlogical, and many others who's monikers escape me.

    I usually don't even realize most of the YN's are so young!

    *Edited after I read the title CORRECTLY! image

    Amanda is an extremely welcome addition to the boards and I look forward to her contributions and energy in an already enjoyable forum.
    She's not only a fellow coin enthusiast, but a fellow Civil War buff as well, and quite knowledgeable and passionate about that turbulent time in our Nation's history.
    One more thing, she's been here only one month and already 650 posts. That's image.

    My kid let's me read some of what he post on other forums.

    Amanda is one of the brightest minds on the boards, even at such a young age. She has a huge future for her, and we'll be hearing a lot from Amanda in the coming years in the hobby. She actually reminds me somewhat of Jeremy/Airplanenut, another top-notch YN. image

    Wow, I was busy all day doing chores so I could go to the BRNA show tomorrow and I log on and I find this. image I believe I actually have tears in my eyes. This hobby is so important to me and totally turned my life around. It means a lot to me that so many people here care about what I have to say. That is one of the greatest things about this hobby, the willingness of people to help out newcomers so everyone can enjoy the hobby more. These kind words of encouragement will surely stick with me for a very long time to come. image I thank each and every one of you ever so much. Numismatics used to be the 'hobby of kings.' Now it's something everyone can enjoy. I'm so very glad that places like this make numismatic knowledge available to people, whether they collect Lincolns or Saint-Gaudens. The friends I have made so far on these boards are very wonderful. image

    Thanks,

    Amanda

    If Amanda PMs me, I'll send her some stuff from the junk box (like I did for the July 4th givaway). I've always encouraged other YNs, and she's no exception.

    I challenge others to get on the bandwagon.
