Hi, all. I followed a link on CU forums and found this board to be very informative. I am normally a lurker - reading and learning. It's true, even though it's probably hard to believe, since I've already posted 4 times in the last 10 minutes.
Counterfeits fascinate me. My primary focus is Spanish Colonials, and every day I find proof of how little I really know about it. I collect coins because I like the persuit of knowledge.
I am Siberian-born Russian, spent 10 years in Ukraine, 10 years in U.S. (of which 1 year in the Middle East), and currently on a contract in Toronto.
Looking forward to reading insightful posts and perhaps, one day, adding something of value.
Roman.
Edited to add: I'm a numismatic newbie and have only been collecting for 7-8 months. Edited by TwoKopeiki 09/28/2006 9:54 pm

Roman, welcome to the forum! You'll find us a fun group and the collective knowledge is incredible.
As Bobby said, you and swamperbob will get along very well with your interest in counterfeits.

Glad to see you made it here, TwoKopeiki.  The Moderators may end up moving this to the "welcome" forum - they like to do that sort of reorganizing, categorizing thing around here...

Sure do, The only downside is lack of Coin dealers and has no pork. And the coin dealers barely know what theyre selling and overprice almost everything.
