Help me write the Numismatic 10 commandments.

holeinone1972 · December 21, 2006 12:43AM

I am so bored, at home with 2 crazy X-Mas anticipating monsters.

So why don't we come up with the 10 commandments of Numismatics?

I will start with number 10. These will be compiled later and put into what I consider a proper order.

Number 10

Thou shalt not bump your b/s/t forum post more than once a day!

LOL

I break that one all the time.
