  1. I agree. Especially that 95 O. He should have seen that one coming.
  2. Just did a search and I had no idea there were so many. It's good to see a thriving industry spring up in PA. Hope it turns out great for you.
  3. I hope it isn't that 'weather related' stuff they brew in the back woods of Punxsutawney. What do they call that stuff? 'White Lightning' I do believe. A glass or two and you'll be talking to Phil.
  4. I remember the days we could buy Fleers Double Bubble gum, a good size square, complete with sports cards for a nickel. Even a candy bar big enough to share for 5 cents, I collect the Buffalo. Nothing fancy nothing exciting bu at least AU or low MS.
  5. Oops! It is true. The older I get........... Thanks.
  6. What a poor design, in my opinion and only my opinion. I agree with Roger; there should be no reason to have to tell us what the events is. And my vote would be:
  7. "so they ask and then ridicule the person answering because they don't think he knows anything." This is where I agree with bsshog40. While we should exercise a limit of patience where new people are concerned there is no reason, no excuse, for anyone on this forum to have to put up with ridicule or insolent behavior. Here is a suggestion: Many forums, much larger than this or the one ATS, have 'Volunteer Moderators'. There are many here who would make a good moderator and then we would police our own behavior. This is just a suggestion. Thanks for your discussions.
  8. I've never had a 'political' discussion on this forum or any other coin forum. I have a standing rule: I do not discuss Religion or Politics with anyone at anytime. If I wanted to discuss politics I'd sign up at CNN or Fox. I'm here for the coin info. The individual I replied to has a point and we should respect his right to see it out.
  9. I'm sorry, I know how you feel. I signed on in 2002 and, for this reason, I was gone by 2008. You are right; NGC needs to tighten this forum up. I don't know what you want to do but you have my support. Just PM me and let me know what you'd like me to do or say. At first this forum was the place to be. Great friendly folks who were most knowledgeable and helpful. Then in 2004 we had the War of the Words and things weren't like they used to be. I hope you don't leave; I enjoy reading your comments.
  10. This isn't the first time this forum has had the 'test'. I expect this 'Superior' is a known entity.
  11. Q: What's 6 inches long, 2 inches wide and drives women wild? A: a $100 bill!source: http://www.jokes4us.com/dirtyjokes/moneyjokes.html
  12. My vote is that Ratzie33 be assigned Conservatorship of this valued treasure.
  13. I agree, nice pick up. Let's see it if possible.
  14. Well, I just finished reading 'Girl On The Silver Dollar' and really enjoyed it. Very well written and full of historical items that made it a pleasure to read. I look forward to this new book.
  15. I'll probably remember a few more but that was a fun crew. I miss those days.

  17. Q. How can you tell a blonde is not a Broncos fan?A. She thinks a quarterback is change for a buck. In Vegas, a blonde walks up to a Coke machine and puts in a coin. Out pops a Coke. The blonde looks amazed and runs away to get some more coins. She returns and starts feeding the machine madly, and of course the machine keeps popping out the drinks. Another person walks up behind the blonde and watches her antics for a few minutes before stopping her and asking if someone else could have a go. The blonde spins around and shouts in her face: "Can't you see I'm winning?"
  18. Tanner Pomeranz 6 months ago A guy took his blonde girlfriend to the Super Bowl game. They had great seats right behind their teams bench. After the game the guy asked his girlfriend how she liked the experience. “Oh, I really liked it!” she replied, “Especially the tight pants and all the big muscles, but I couldn’t understand why they were killing each other over 25 cents.” Dumbfounded, her boyfriend asked, “What do you mean?” She said, “Well, they flipped a coin, one team got it and then for the rest of the game, all they kept screaming was, ‘Get the quarter back! Get the quarter back!’ I’m like, hellooooo! It’s only 25 cents!”
  19. Agree with Moxie15. C'mon Insider, your quizzes on the board ATS were very interesting. I think they would work well here and after a while draw in some new blood. RWB posts some very educational topics. Perhaps when we are on other sites we may 'advertise'. Contests are fun and a great way to interact with our fellow NGC texters. I'm willing to give it a try.
  20. NGC = VF Details Cleaned. Both. PCGS VF Details Cleaned. Both. But that was okay Cadet67. It was part of the learning process, I was very angry until Insider, who posts on this forum, helped me understand. The good folks here will help you out. Good luck..
  21. Cadet67: Once I disagreed with what our host graded two CC Trade Dollars so I cracked them out and sent them to PCGS. There's also the third place runner up ANACS.or ICG. Hope things turn out better for you and good luck.
  22. Sportscasting August 2020 "The former NFL star occasionally holds memorabilia autograph sessions, details TMZ, such as the not-so-secret gatherings he held in a Vegas hotel in 2017 when he signed memorabilia for a couple of hours. Sessions like these provide income. However, they may also be a target for seizure as Simpson still owes several million dollars in judgments to Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman’s families. Simpson has generous pensions from the NFL and Screen Actors Guild, details Town & Country. He makes money from TV interviews, too. And don’t forget: Now that Simpson is in his seventies, Social Security also contributes to his monthly income. All in all, the former athlete receives a tidy amount of money each month. A lot of it is not in danger of being seized to pay those judgments."
