It's Been 3 Years Already?

well..it looks like i'll have been a member of this beautiful place for 3 years as of 11/30/2016. time flies eh? it seems like just yesterday I found this place and frequented it, as a lurker on the pursuit of knowledge and eventually I made my first email account in order to register here....and what has come of it?
I've met outstanding people, seen coins both on screen and in hand which can't be matched, talked to some of the smartest people I've ever met, learned to grade, learned varieties, broadened my knowledge immensely as well as many more things!

i just want to say thank you to this amazing place, it's members, the mods, and Bobby for making this place not only the best numismatic related site ever, without a doubt..but also for making it an outstanding and large family..I'm not kidding when I say this is the only site I always have a tab open for lol. this place is just amazing!
