    I'll be driving to Ohio Thurs to visit a coin shop.

    1. Should I have the radio on listening for "breaking news" on NPR?

    2. Can't wait to see if the dealer even knows what I'm talking about when I ask him what the big one was.

    Serious question---what time will be big one be announced?

    Ok, seriously I feel like a kid on Christmas Eve waiting for Santa to come....and I know your next comment....There ain't no Santa Claus in numismatics...image

    Well, I think PCGS and HRH have accomplished their mission of creating a huge amount of buzz. Whether you like it or not, we forumites have been consumed with "the big one"....

    Read it again. The time has been changed. image >>


    He's edited it so many times, at least he could have changed the time in his opening paragraph so that fools like me wouldn't be waiting with baited breath for "The Big One". Then he goes on to say that the big announcement on the PCGS web site will be at 2:00cst (not even cdt). It will remain a mystery until the opening.

    Serious answer:

    The "big one" will be announced at a press conference in Fort Worth, Texas tomorrow, Thursday, March 25th at 10:30AM, central daylight time. That is 11:30AM in the east, 9:30am in the mountain zones and 8:30am on the west coast.

    One and one half hours after the "announcement" is made, a complete report will be posted on the PCGS website. That posting will be at noon, central time, 1PM eastern time, 11AM mountain time and 10AM on the west coast.

    Set your watches.

    Thanks for clarifying Steve. Now, maybe, at least I can get the required amount of sleep needed for such an occassion. image

    I will be there with my video camera and I'm uploading it to You Tube right after the announcement. I'll post the link to the video when I get it uploaded.

    As I write these words, I am 11 hours ahead of EDT in Bangkok. I expect that the news will hit the AP wires here first. I will be sure to post the news before it hits the US. image
