I must say that I am vastly disappointed in the caliber of people who now claim to be numismatists...

These people collect some of the most ridiculous items. Such as Lincoln pennies, and Jefferson nickels...and those new fangled dollars...Susan B. and Ike's and Sacagawea. What kind of names are those? A true collector knows that the only coins worth collecting are the kings of the numismatic world..the MORGANS and BUST Halfs, the Indian cents and Liberty Nickels..those grand old coins of years prior to the 1900's. The caliber of people is declining by the year, and the SSCS is being forced to having to deal with these upstart collectors. And having to read the opinions of these newveau experts and purists, is sometimes more than I can bear. Let us return to the days that only the well to do collected our beautiful coins, and we are the arbitrators of the hobby, the final word on who says what or what topics can be discussed. Oh for the good ole days.

THIS IS KNOWN AS SATIRE........
