Thanks for the explanation Fred. I never really considered it like that. I just want to say that I've met some great traders here and want to make sure they get recognized. I don't really collect expensive coins (cupronickel and copper mostly), and I appreciate the fact that not one person here has made a profit off of me so far, not even on shipping costs to Canada.

Of course, Coin Community counts among its' members some real major-leaguers in the numismatic anti-fraud lineup, and any potential troll is literally taking their life in their hands by trying a scam here. But that's another story entirely.

I reinforce what Dave said and reiterate what I previously stated. We are very serious about wannabe con and fraud artists here on CCF. As a 24-year Army combat soldier with two wars behind me, this may sound extreme, but we have the capability and motive to follow up. Mess with CCF and we mess back big time:

Fortunately and as expected, CCF members have almost always proven themselves to be above reproach and have shown to be exemplary members of the numismatic community so such extreme measures have not been taken.

Just shut your eyes, it wont hurt for long.:)

Hi Morgan Fred,
Thanks for the response, I don't think it is that big of a deal. My 10-year old daughter saw them and said, "they are too gross for kids, especially with the blood dripping down on the blade."

We have:

Forum Mom
Forum Dad
Forum Uncle
Forum Kid
Forum Moderators

all we need now is:

Forum Bouncer
Forum Hitman
Forum Lobbyist

We'd be the most knowledgeable and intimidating numismatic force in the universe.

I suppose I failed to mention I just took a shot of cough syrup so I'm not very lucid at the moment

t360, I toned down the guillotines a bit. I sincerely hope your daughter will continue to read (and maybe join?) CCF as a Young Numismatist. As a very active Scouter of over 50 years, I am very sensitive to youth and to their perceptions of our adult world. I admit the guillotine was a bit much; a less graphic illustration of what happens to forum violators would probably have been sufficient warning.

t360, please pass along my sincerest apologies to Rebecca and I hope she wasn't grossed out too much. It's a tough world we're in and she and her generation must reap what we have sown although it's not always a pretty sight.

If she really likes toned Morgans, I recommend she shift a little toward regular or lightly toned Morgans since far too often, toned Morgans (especially extremely toned Morgans) are used to cover up defects. As a Morganphile (hence username "Morgan Fred") with a passable collection of Morgans (my forte is Carson City Morgans), I've been burned a few times too many by toned Morgans. Nevertheless, Lady Liberty is my favorite coin!

Ask Rebecca to ask Metalman (Rick) about his 1888-O Morgan. Rick is a good and very trusted friend (and fellow moderator from whom I have learned much) and he will be more than pleased to offer information on Morgans. In fact, there's a whole bunch of us Morgan nuts on the forum such as SuperDave, Bryan, Tpatna, and a lot more who would be very happy to give her advice on Morgans.

All of us are eager to help young numismatists and it sounds like you got her off in the right direction with Morgans.
