Well deserved! Perhaps the title of this thread could be changed to something a little more positive and congratulatory. Any thread with RCNA in the title tends to make viewers hit the snooze button before they even read the thread, add to that a disparaging tone and many hundreds will want to miss reading a significant thread. *** Staff edit: we agree! ***

Thanks Mike (and everyone else)... writing is a big part of my career, and so far it has been a great marriage. The observation skills of a geologist, analytical tools of a scientist and the passion of bringing both to a fantastic hobby. I am humbled to be on that list of excellent numismatic writers.
My only regret is that I don't have more time to write about coins...

Finally picked up my award last night, from Chris Faulkner at a social "coins 'n' beer" event... It came with a nice proof silver medal, that was engraved. Sorry the photography is crappy, but I did not want to remove the medal from the capsule.

This is the coin that caused all the big fuss...
