Does anyone know of a forum you can join other than this one to learn about coins if your not aprofessional coin collector or a professional photographer to try to get help with a coin?

No Coinmasters it was something I accidentally posted in US classic variety tonight rather than in here and when I was trying to repost it someone had made a comment.
I came in here to ask if anyone knew of a forum I could join more so for someone just staring out with coin collecting and this is the only one I'm usually in and more familiar with people in here.
I looked back at your last comment to me and no I know your just trying to help. I did not take it offensively. No worries.

SadiesAngel, I joined this site year and a half ago only 2 weeks after my first coin purchase. I learned by searching for my question as a lot have been asked I found other pictures similar to mine. I knew little to nothing and posted plenty of lemons.. but the good old folks here always helped... I eventually got usb microscope for varieties and used camera phone for pictures which you can pick up for as low as $20 now it was about $60 back then. I bought a few books and visited a few error website on the type of coins. got a Cherry Pickers Guide read and starting and slowly knowing what to look for. A lot of people in varieties and errors might check a coin against a site like coppercoins first then post info here to confirm it. |

Good SA, I'm glad it wasn't me. I went to classic coins to see whatever it is you're talking about, but couldn't find it. I assume it was removed and the matter resolved. I hope so. There are culprits on all web sites, but when found out, they are weeded out. This is the best site, I hope you stick around.

John1: For doctors patients is a virtue! :D I kid. The forum post SadiesAngel posted has been deleted per her request.
This site really is the best for coin support, and learning. It's very professional, friendly and easy to search for posts. Posts on CoinCommunity are translated very well to the Google search engine, very easy to find old posts you remember by searching google, especially Google images! I can often post something, do some research on Google and find my own post the same day with only a few generic keywords

One thing also to remember about a public forum.. Often things are read with emotion when their may not have been any emotion behind what was typed.. We have all done it.. I have seen a lot of members on this forum in the near 8 years that I have been here.. Lots of personality's and all good people "the bad ones get banned  " Edited by daviscfad

Thank you all of you for the kind words and advice. Over the past months everyone has been not only helpful but very nice. I think I'm just frustrated with trying to get the pictures needed for others to be able to see them clearly enough and I took it to much to heart with a comment that was said. I have learnt a lot in this forum and have had some laughs along the way as their are some wonderful people in here, I just don't think I'm cut out for taking pictures I guess. But I do want to thank everyone for replying.

Go to the photography forum and in a few days they'll have you shootin like Ansel Adams. It's 99% tips and tricks, 1% the camera you're using  Oh and if anyone gives you grief over photos to the point they make you want to leave, send them my way! Edited by Cascade
