    Just Bob got a reaction from Hoghead515 in About Bernard von NotHous   
    Although I will admit to being nice, I don't recall ever having suggested that "we all just try to get along." In fact, I do not feel that way at all. There are definitely posters on here, past and present, with whom I did/do not get along, and there are undoubtedly some who feel the same about me. I have no problem calling out, arguing with, chastising, ignoring, or refusing to respond to anyone who comes on here and tries to push misinformation, lead newbies astray, act stupid, or otherwise make a nuisance of themselves. And, I certainly expect others to do the same to me.

    First, welcome to the forum, and thank you for joining in the discussion.
    Does the above statement mean that NGC graders know that the coins they are grading were submitted by your company? Or is that information just for the people handling the paperwork?

    Good job on that last set of pictures.
    Your coin does not appear to be one of the overdates. It looks to be, as Woods stated, simply a worn Indian cent, worth a dollar or two. There is no "lion mark," and all of the other marks are just circulation marks. Ignore the white circles in the above pics. They are just showing circulation hits - nothing more. Some people see all sorts of things on coins, the same way people see shapes in clouds. It's a phenomenon called pareidolia, and it is has gotten quite common on coin forums recently.

    The seller needs to be outed loudly and forcefully. If you don't want to do it, post their name or a link here. I will be happy to let everyone know who is selling counterfeits. 
    By the way, them selling these coins to you is against the law, if they are located in the US. I am not sure how our Hobby Protection Act applies to sellers located outside the country.

    Just Bob got a reaction from Oceanavekid@icloud.com in Question about Proof sets   
    Those sets were produced by the National Collectors Mint, a private company that produces limited edition "collectibles" that may or may not appreciate in value. This mintage was limited to 1009 sets, I believe. The "coins" are silver, except for the cent copy, which is copper. Interestingly, the COAs are signed by Barry Goldwater, Jr., former representative from California, and son of former Senator and presidential candidate Barry Goldwater, Sr.

    Do your coins look like this? (Without the word "COPY"?)

    Just Bob got a reaction from Henri Charriere in I don't have an "ignore" list...   
    but my "don't bother responding to this poster because of his attitude" list is growing longer by the day.
    I know that I was a newbie once, and I certainly made my share of bonehead posts - and still do, I suppose - but it seems like we keep getting people on here who:
    (a) think that nearly every coin they run across has to be some some sort of special strike, experimental finish, error, or variety, or
    (b) think that they are right, and everyone else is wrong, and that they are more knowledgeable than people with many more years of experience than them, or
    (c) think that, since no one agrees with them, then everyone besides them either has a huge ego that prevents them from admitting that they are wrong or don't know, or is out to destroy their dreams, or
    (d) can not accept constructive criticism or correction without getting defensive, or
    (e) have gone off their meds, or are over self-medicating, or
    (f) lack basic social skills

    I can honestly say that this is the first time I have ever seen an advertisement for buffalo and longhorn semen. And I saw it on a coin chat board.
