  1. Hey, are you hot? You're not as...well...frightening looking here as you are other places!!! Congrats! Jerry
  2. I hate hearing about things like this but it happens quite often in collectibles. It's always the same thought. If people only knew then what we know now. Jerry
  3. If anyone is interested, there is a stamp discussion forum over at PCGS....Actually I should say Collector's Universe. Jerry
  4. "I abhor all irredeemable paper, everything in the shape of paper issued for ciculation whether by government or individuals, which cannot be turned into gold or silver at the will of the holder." Daniel Webster. Anybody have any other quotes about paper money by well known people? How about un-well known people? How about some originals from the board members? Jerry
  5. WOW! Another Jerry. Welcome aboard!!!! Jerry
  6. mmarotta, that was very nicely written. Thank you, Jerry
  7. Well, I guess I better pick up a few. It is kind of errie though. As a matter of fact, I don't like it one bit. Why do you just say SBAs? Is that they design they mention? Jerry
  8. That was interesting. I always wondered what it looked like inside a TPG. Jerry
  9. I was told none of the TPG graders wear gloves because it causes clumziness when handling the coins???!!? Jerry
  10. I know that!!!!! But why? Is it just taken for granted that all Franklin Proofs are FBL? Or is it taken for granted that all Franklin Proofs are NOT FBL?? Jerry
  11. Are all proof Franklins considered FBL? None considered FBL? What's the deal?? Jerry
  12. Hi Gump! You found the right spot. Proofs? Someone already mentioned about the RedBook. It's a great reference. It tells you about proofs in there. Proof refers to the method of manufacture. There purpose is...well whatever you decide!! Jerry
  13. Thank-you, thank-you for mentioning stamps. I too started out with both coins and stamps. I am now getting back into my stamp collection. When I think back to what I learned from stamps I marvel. All, the different countries, and how they spell them, not just the English language way. I did see/hear this recently. Stamp collectors still out number coin collectors by far because of the large following around the world of stamps depicting Disney characters! Jerry
  14. sitting in your Sauna?? That was one thing missing in your tour from yesteryear. Jerry
  15. Do you normally pay the dealer's asking price? Or do you make an offer? Is there a price cutoff? Like $1.00 to $100..heck with it, $101 to $1000..maybe, and anything over $1000..it's quite possible. Jerry
