I'm guessing we realize this post is two years old ?

Yep Roger! That's the beauty of being able to visit threads from the past - new people can view them too!

Agree on the "viewing" part lara...not so much on the commenting...after all, we have to wade through them again

True

I think new members should look through old threads like these, and if they have a question, they should comment and ask on that thread.

However, I agree that digging up an old thread like this to say "nice coin" is unnecessary.

That's right Sean ! Thanks for clarifying what I was thinking...and additionally, that the comment isn't something that's already been answered.New questions are always great.

I Like it and isn't that why the Threads are archived??. ;;; Viewing and comments....

I like it, too. Let a great coin such as this be shown again and again. What are the chances that a variety as scarce as this would be struck off center? And yet, I've seen this happen on the 2000 wide am as well. Can you imagine the value of a big doubled die like a '72 struck off center? That'd be amazing!

True...I guess I was just resisting the forum going the way of some others..but maybe that's the direction that is wanted...sorry I spoke up...won't happen anymore.

Sorry but it is not for sale or trade and Thanks for the offer.

It will belong to my grandkids in a few years or more (I hope)...

Awesome coin. make sure you teach them all about them i cant wait to teach mine. The MORE should defiantly be the time.


Congrats!

Probably better off Roger, there seems to be a large enough population now that'll turn us into a CoinTalk in no time. Why resist change???

[pman860507]

wow this is another one!!! i need to start looking at the dates!

[liveandievarieties]

hehe, uh, yeah.

Incredible find! gives hope to the rest of us.

Now until I read all of the posts I didn't even realize that this was an old thread. (Being a newbie) Sorry I gave a compliment to the coin, I would have never found the thread and seen the coin if it hadn't have come up today. Maybe the mod's or webmaster can archive and put a "read only" on any thread that is deemed "to old" to dredge up to comment on. That would solve some of complaints from the veterans that have seemed to arise as of late. When is a thread to old to be dredged up to comment on considering when someone does a search (another bone of contention) and finds something to them is exciting and comments? Is archiving and read only status possible?
