dd27 Pillar of the Community United States 666 Posts	Posted 09/09/2016 09:26 am Of course, the best online Coin Collecting/Numismatic glossary is the CCF Glossary. (Very helpful!) Oh, CCF = Coin Community Family, i.e., this forum that you are visiting right now, http://www.CoinCommunity.com (I am trying to practice what I preach and define acronyms in my posts.) I should therefore add that i.e.= Latin abbreviation for id est (that is). Additional Coin Collecting/Numismatic Online Glossaries https://www.moodyins.com/terms/glossary/coin.htm http://www.coinsandcanada.com/gloss...viations.php http://www.dvrarecoins.com/glossary.php https://coins.ha.com/c/ref/glossary.zx http://typesets.wikidot.com/acronyms http://www.acsb.com/glossary.htm https://web.stanford.edu/~clint/coinacro.htm https://oldcurrencyexchange.com/201...-collectors/ And there's a good one on Red-It (a site whose name and URL is blocked here) in the r/coins sub-red-it. Search for "coin terms definitions abbreviations and acronyms". TAFN! YHS, dd27 AKA Mark YFNWG ;^) . . . You saw what I did there, eh? TAFN! = That's All For Now!

dd27 Pillar of the Community United States 666 Posts	Posted 09/10/2016 11:07 am Shoot, I didn't remember that distinction. Perhaps because I never knew about it in the first place! Mr. Google to the rescue: http://www.dailywritingtips.com/ini...nd-acronyms/ Thanks jbuck! As a certified word geek, I always appreciate learning something new about our language (and other languages). ~ Mark Edited by dd27 09/10/2016 11:08 am Report this Post to the Staff
