Hi guys! my name is Matt! I am 22 years old and run Lost Dutchman Rare Coins in Indianapolis. (your are prob thinking yeah great another dealer trying to sling his goods) that's not the case. I am just as big of a collector as each of you. I love early dollars draped bust, seated and trade as well as morgans. I also enjoy teaching kids (and adults) about our hobby. Just wanted to say Hi and I will try to be as much help as I can to anyone with questions on the board!

Welcome aboard! Nice to have more professionals around.

Thanks alot! I'm glad to be here. I just hope I can be of help!

Yeah we are.... What ya got?

Welcome to the forum! This is a great place for info for collectors but dont be shy with the merchandise... we have a n advertising forum for that reason. Bring on the deals!

Make yourself comfy, hope you hang around for a while. As Tiff said its always better to have more professionals around, more people to help!

Now, Bobby, patience. We do have rules about these things.

Pardon me LostDutchman for going in your post...

Did the rules make it over from the old site Tiff? I was looking for them the other day and could not find them.

-Bobby

Other than the blurb under the forum, I guess the About The Advertising Forums is missing. I shall contact the archivist.

Hey there LostDutchman, welcome here,

Would you care to explain your screen name, please?

Inquiring (Dutch!!) mind wants to know....

German, not your Dutch.

There's actually a Lost Dutchman State Park.

The lost dutchman mine was a famous mine in AZ here in the United States. The former owner of this shop thought it was catchy! and it has had the same name since 1985 so why change a good thing!!

and bobby....In time my friend...I want to get to know you guys and give you guys a chance to know me before I start selling things...I have learned that its ok to sell stuff to strangers but it's more fun to sell stuff to your friends..

I think we're going to like you!

You hit that on the Mark! A perfect answer.

-Bobby

and I'm glad I found this place....now I have something to do besides work on my website and read the paper all day on slow days!

Thanks Tiff and LostDutchman, I was kinda curious since I'm Dutch.

Welcome Matt! We already like you.

Don't forget to check out our Popular Coin Idol competitions. We need more contestants.

oh oh oh that looks like fun!! I have all sorts of stuff....how does it work???

when it's announced, we all can enter one or more coins in several categories. then the person whu runs it, will pick two contestants in each category and let us all vote for the one we like best. The winner gets to the next round the other one is out.

In the end there's one coin left , the overall winner.

I'm sure when it's time to enter coins, more details will be reveiled in the PCI forum

Don't forget though, you will need an account here...

Hi Matt, welcome aboard.

Hurray, another Hoosier!

Hi, Matt--I'm Kat from Evansville. I'm new to 'proper' coin collecting practices and I've already learned tons from the marvelous CoinPeople folks!

You can be the intelligent ambassador from Indiana and I'll hold on to my current position as ambassador of silliness from Indiana. You can catch me in the Asylum most of the time.

Enjoy yourself and don't hesitate to ask questions--there's a lot of smart people here!

Evansville! I went to school in Vincennes....and was always going down there....

Glad to see some more midwesters

A little late but welcome. Hope to visit the shop and chat with you in the future.

Welcome!

Please allow an awfully belated welcome to CoinPeople.com!!!
