    I doubt it, but I bet he's blushing from all the attention! Did he really think he'd just pop in here, write about some silly ol' SLQ and think no one would notice?!

    J/K about that silly ol' coin - it's awesome! image

    don't listen to anyone here,

    if you want to know Mark Feld,

    go to his website,
    read a coin description,
    look at the picture,
    call him to discuss the coin,
    or just order one you might like,
    receive the coin

    then you will "know Mark"

    He was not banned if I remember correctly he just decided his and the hosts views differed on too many subjects for him to continue discussions on this site. I hope that a mutual respect of each others views by both parties lead to further discussions by both on here. I for one like to hear comments and advice from those that really have a solid background in the hobby.
    Now I hope Fletcher can find his own avatar.

    Edited to say that I was misinformed of his status but it is now changed.
    And that Flether has changed his avatar.

    Actually, God does collect coins and although God isn't Mark Feld, He exclusively purchases his coins from him.*

    When I was really new here someone hipped me to Mark and I have had nothing but pleasant dealings with him, I am waiting for a piece from his latest offering right now. One dealer described Mark as "honest to a fault," that description alone was good enough for me. I have used him to vette coins at auction, he of course charges a fee but only if he buys the piece for you, money well spent. He has steered me away from some pieces I probably would have bought on my own. Did someone here say Mark was God? Just kidding of course, probably some minor deity.image

    Mark is the most honest and caring dealer I know, seriously.

    The profit he made from a coin I traded him for one of his coins he sold to me, he gave back to me instead he could've easily kept it for himself.

    I can't believe that you just admitted to being a coin doctor!!! Incense, eh? Does that works as good as ammonia, or taco bell napkins?

    Realone, you recently posted about a recent transaction with Mark, prompting me to send him an email (we hadn't been in touch for easily a year) wherein I alerted him to your post and the comments of others.

    Lo and behold heeeee's back. Coincidence, perhaps. But I suspect your post was a factor.

    Thought you might want to know this....
