(did I do that right?)
several people stopped by to say hi, myself included. Everyone had a good time (blocking PCGS' table!) with a little more than brief chat.
I safely made it home to eat (Five Guys.. but near my house) and get my kid from school....
(read: I had to leave right after.)
no official word yet, but I hope to be wandering the aisles tomorrow, too. I have a couple of things I'd like to show my kid and maybe buy.

I mentioned to Mr. Longacre that I was in a frothy frenzied state at the 12:15 Baltimore summit.
I was then gratiously granted an audience and was allowed a voice.
I better hold back on any further commentary.
I certainly do not want to tell of things untellable.

I have met Longacre before - and I appreciate the questions he asks on the forum and the forum is really a better place for the questions he has asked. Some were obviously in fun and others have been quite serious which has lead to the type of exchange expected here.
I am pleased I was able to meet up with RYK- what a terrific and knowledgable collector! While quite modest, he is well versed in 10 Libs and early gold in general. I would have liked to have chatted longer, but I had one day to do too much- buy, sell and submit- visit and look for good coins to buy within a fixed schedule. Today was alittle over scheduled in terms of what I thought I needed to do.
Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
RYK is way cool......loved his box of 20!!!
It was great to meet you, coinkat.
From our brief meeting, I recognized yourself as being a 'terrific and knowledgable' collector!!!
Me?? "I could have been a contender!"

I dont want to hear about their date>>
I wonder who writes the checks... and who has the door opened for them......
No, it is not serious; it is supposed to be fun. Breaking the monotony of the existence of the hoi poloi.

And to think my "woody" post got bammed and this stuff proliferates! Seems to me Mrs. RYK and Mrs. Longacre are very understanding spouses, if ya know what I mean!

I think its cause a 'woody' comment can be taken several ways...
trust and safety?
but I can see your point when the focus is idolizing one or two board members.
the only difference I could see between old gold collectors and collectors of roll searched modern crap are the jeans and t-shirts are pressed.
(Longacre: do you pay for the martinizing, too?)

Honest answer? Because a number of folks here aren't just about the latest flip. They view the boards as a community of like-minded folks. Friendships and bonds formed.
To those that only use the boards to know what the latest flip is, and where/how to sell it, it will seem foreign, however, to many, friendships that extend outside of the forum itself do happen.
The threads like this pop up because of that comraderie and the larger community spirit.

I met both RYK and Longacre today and enjoyed spending time talking with them.
And I enjoy threads like this because they remind us that the human aspect of this hobby is it's most important benefit.
There were multiple additional photos, including one with Legend/Laura actually choking Longacre...but you will have to wait for the official ryk show report later in the weekend (accept no substitute

I only see one red X, not two.
There are some that participate here that have asked questions that have helped make this the forum that it is- some of the questions have had a humorous tone- others have been serious which is to be expected for any hobby. Others have participated by attempting to share what they have learned or what they observe in an effort to be helpful as well as offer concepts/suggestions for improving the hobby. Some have earned our respect through their participation. While having a sense of humor adds to the enjoyment of any hobby and life in general, it also has limitations. Understanding the limitations can be a challenge and it seems that challenge arrived here in this thread and it needs to be directed back towards what brings us all here.

<< <i>I'm confused. Which is the obverse, and which is the reverse?
Now I'm mad I did not bring my camera to capture the "group" that assembled in front of the PCGS booth!!!
Lots of smiles and handshakes and fun small talk.
OK, tootawl looked down on all of us.
Wait, there was another too tall coin forum member that I forgot his name.....had way too much hair for me too!!!
Great time was had by one and all!!!
<< <i>I'm confused. Which is the obverse, and which is the reverse?
Is this them? Certainly not what I have envisioned. Oh well.

It must just be the color and placement of the hats...
Longacre was incognito.
