I am not sure about the name-calling, but I would like to see and learn more about the 1858-D $5 in 55. I had a difficult time finding an acceptable example for my collection.

OK it does say KIDDING at the bottom of the reply. I find it reassuring though the word is not pejorative as you "name calling"
make it. As, a matter of fact if the shoe fits wear it.
Getting back to the coin I like it and that's what matters when I get
it back I will post it. Regards, Michael

prig –noun-

a person who displays or demands of others pointlessly precise conformity, fussiness about trivialities, or exaggerated propriety, esp. in a self-righteous or irritating manner.

Wow, this Prig thing is something else...........from Wikipedia:

A Prig (IPA: [prɪg]) is someone who shows an inordinately zealous approach to matters of form and propriety; especially where the Prig has the ability to show his/her superior knowledge to those who don't know the protocol.

Priggish-ness can be viewed as a symptom of Institutionalisation, whether that be in Politics, The Armed Forces or Public School.

A Prig is generally a passive-aggressive, instigating fights rather than partaking of them. The Prig is a survivor and will unconsciously attach him/herself to any group that would seem to further his/her prospects.

The Prig undertakes all projects with a definite sense of Smugness.

Yes, I know that coin. I passed on it. High risk:high reward. Not my style. Good luck and let us know if and how it grades.

Barndog and Gold Bully, yes, and that is what happens when
we coin collectors get on a jag about moderns. I didn't really mean
to offend was just kidding about the remark as.......I said.
You see my thread was another "modern one" Regards, Michael

Can you imagine Jonestown commems in PCGS slabs? Is there enough Kool-Aid in the world for that?

How do I locate the PCGS coin number for the silver proof?

Has anyone mailed a Jamestown yet?

I submitted 8 Jamestown dollars. I just left the PCGS# blank.
My Gold uncirculated Jamestown commems are now showing 'In stock & reserved" on the US Mint's website.

Is PCGS still using the "first strike" designation, if so what is the cost?

GoldenNickels · January 19, 2007 10:21PM

Should I mark anything on the "other" box. First strike or early release?
