Hoot is at it again!

[Weidel Legacy Collection]

I just read Mark Hooten's latest article in the Coin World monthly price addition. It discusses strike designations in use by the different TPG's and how they differ between service. It was a great read and was very well done.

 

Mark, it's gotten so that whenever I read an article I've started checking the byline just to see if I'm reading more of your handiwork.

[Hoot]

Thank you RWW!!! It was a fun and challenging article to write. The discussions on these boards were inpirational!

 

Next up - Jefferson nickels of 1938-42! I'm having more fun than any one person deserves!

OK, that does it! Why is it started writing these articles AFTER I stopped my subscription to CW? Hmmm...?

 

Do you have all the articles you wrote in Word or .pdf file that you can send me, Hoot? PM me!

I can photocopy them if you REALLY want a copy!

Photocopy? C'mon! Join the 21st century! What did you do TYPE it up and send it to CW?...

"Photocopy? C'mon! Join the 21st century! What did you do TYPE it up and send it to CW?...lol"

 

Okay, so I'm antiquated and slightly naive. What's the alternative?

 

By the way, I saw Coin Values on the shelf at Hastings tonight. I was surprised, as I didn't know it was an independent pub and thought it only came once a month with Coin World.

Nope, they announced with the commencement of the new name and format that it would be sold in newstands.

Boy !! You keep this up Hoot and we're gonna have to put Mr. in front of your name. I can just see it now - Mr. Hoot

 

Good job - keep up the good work

Hey Mark,

 

Great article. I was in my "office," where I do my finest reading and I'm reading this great article, very to the point, basic, and factual, and I think, 'hey, is this the article I heard Mark wrote?' Sure enough. It was.

[Hoot]

Thanks for the kind words Robert and Doug! Mr. Hoot sounds like too much of a mouthful for me. And Robert - most of my thinking is fairly basal, or basic, or some such thing!

Are your articles on the net somewhere?

 

If you HAVE to photocopy them then go ahead... PM me, Hoot.

If you're a subscriber to CW online, then you can get those from earlier this year. (I'm not a subscriber to the online edition). As for the Coin Values, they're only on paper, I believe. (But I'm not certain! )

No on the CW subcription...

 

Nah...the way I figured it is that when you wrote the articles for CW you, at least, did them on your computer then sent them to CW for editing. At least, that is how I probably would have done it. So I just figured you had the articles in SOME form on your computer somewhere....

 

Maybe it's time I go get a CW subscribtion again....

Holy mackerel Leo! THAT's definitely an old thread! That article was published in two parts (Part 1 is what you snagged):

 

Part 1

Part 2

 

Thanks for the recollection!

Hoot or Mr. Hoot. That is the question! Ah, but I have a better idea!

 

MOOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Outstanding work again, Mark! I'm gonna want your autograph when next in Vegas! On the articles no less! Then they might be sellable on eBay!

 

Just kidding!

I never mentioned how much I enjoyed these articles because this thread was gone by the time I even got the first part.

 

Thanks Hoot. Good job.
