Nice coins everyone. Here is my latest

One thing that became apparent as a result of the Peace $ scandal, is that collectors can not solely rely on TPG's and they can not solely rely on even the most reputable dealers for determinations on AT/NT. The best defense a collector has is to develop their own knowledge and expertise. Hopefully, these posts that we are about to launch will help those of you who are interested to learn more. Also, I would like to encourage those of you with the relevant experience and knowledge to contribute. I am tired of our hobby being exploited and I know there are many other collectors out there who feel the same way. So lets all chip in and do our best to increase education and awareness throughout the collector base.

Bob and I have been speaking for a while and feel it is a worthwhile effort to increase awareness and education across the collector community in an organized format. We both believe the hobby has changed a great deal over the last several years. Some things have changed for the better and unfortunately some things have changed for the worse. All are points which are worthy of discussuion and honest straight forward debate. I look forward to getting this going and I hope many other experienced and knowledgeable collectors can join in and share their own perspectives.
