Join CCAC and let your input be known for future issues of coins. I was happy to be asked what I thought and submit some input. Surprised when some recommended were implemented. We can make a difference on the hobby.
Thanks for trying to carry on as if everything was normal, Antonio.
I apologize to you in place of Craig (since he is incapable) for ruining the rest of the thread by the 2nd comment. I am sure there will be plenty of applicants anxious to join Craig’s “community” after seeing his example of how “wonderful” Numismatists are.
Wait a damned minute, ‘all applicants must be United States citizens’? That must be some type of ‘misstatement’, as the biden ag is currently engaged in a law suit against Elon Musk for not hiring ‘illegal aliens’ to work at Space X! Apparently, it’s a sin against humanity not hiring scum, that simply cross into our country, to work on rocket propulsion and avionics, but it’s a federal case if they try to apply to a coin advisory committee? Next thing they’ll want is an ID Card verifying your identity. Maybe even Photo ID? Where is Garland when the country… Read more »
KKKraig the Russian Troll, back in action. See him run, see him jump. See him do everything but think before he speaks. The Troll part isn’t in dispute by this point. Think he isn’t Russian though? Check out this blast from his recent racist past (Bold highlight mine)-“Plus, I’d have to bike through the ghetto that is Wash. D. C.and that’s something I would do only if I had an AK-47 strapped to my back.“—-Any Red Blooded American would have said “AR-15” or maybe “M-16”. Your Superhero knows that. How come you don’t? Forget your training? No shock there. (did… Read more »
Jeffee, An AK-47 is a real assault weapon, those AR-15 are not. I guess I’m going to have to constantly edify you, so the AR in AR-15 stands for ‘Armalite rifle’ not assault rifle. Your mommy must have been really stupid in raising you, am I right? What ‘profession’ was she involved in? Lol I’m still waiting to read your review on those gorgeous Christmas Quarter Ornaments.
Perhaps you didn’t notice you never mentioned “assault rifle” in you comment. Idiot. Your “AK-47” here would be semi-automatic just like the AR-15 is. Try again.
Are you having fun yet?
It’s common knowledge to know a AK-47 is an assault weapon without being redundant for the IQ challenged, like you. And by the way genius, I’ve seen the AK-47 at the gun range fully automatic. It’s a very easy trigger modification to make it so. And for the record, I don’t own one or the AR-15, but if I had to bike thru D.C. I’d buy one. Do you keep forgetting to write your review on those gorgeous Christmas Quarter Ornaments?
Do we have order yet, Jeffee?
For a Russian Troll maybe. In America we are not allowed full auto unless you have a special license or are a criminal, in which case you do not care about our laws. I am guessing even with a license, you would not take it out into the streets on your back and would still get in trouble doing so. Do you even have a license? Only someone unfamiliar with guns or anti-gun zealots call our semi-auto’s “assault weapons”. You are just trying to deflect from your Russian citizenship. They should have trained you better. Keep trying. Are you having… Read more »
You know, you liberal loons crack me up. I can ‘see’ that the constant Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, nonsense spewed by your idols has brainwashed you Jeffee. I ‘see’ the Russians have absorbed casualty/equipment losses that will take years to recover from. And they have yet to win the conflict. Why should we be concerned about them? I’m sure as hell not. I have to ask you this Jeffee, are you one of those freaky girls identifying as a male. I only ask because you seem to be curious about me being ‘red blooded’ and I would assume the only… Read more »
Speaking of cracking up, looks like the family of raccoons living inside your head finally chewed through all the wiring. You think I am a loon? The evidence begs to differ. You wouldn’t know a fact if it did its “DD” for you. The only thing I am curious about you KKKraig, is whether you will ever grow up. I am enjoying watching you get shriller and shriller with every following reply, though.
Are you having fun yet?
Craig,
Don’t even continue with your hatred-filled, maligning, unaccepting, misguided critique of our LGBTQIA2+ fellow USA citizens of our Queer Community as minorites, as you know nothing about it I’m sure! Hate speech against minorities especially can lead to violence & discrimination, & that is against the law & if convicted, carries extra time in jail/prison as “special circumstances” in most jurisdictions in the USA.
PLUR (Peace, Love, Unity, Respect) – learn it, & live it….Amen!

Did I miss something?
Craig, By the way, I have travelled to Washington, D.C. three different times as an adult. Once was for a 1-day Congressional Hearing as a credentialed journalist on business, once as a day-trip in another year while visiting friends in Baltimore, & I toured the National Holocaust Memorial Museum in D.C., and once for a 3-day Smithsonian Institution numismatic seminar in 1988 (I wore a $1,000 Armani suit coat with matching Armani pants & a $75 Italian silk tie & carried a top-line briefcase), and nobody threatened me at all in any way. I even took a taxi to an… Read more »
Seth, So have I, back in the day. I used to visit friends in Baltimore, back in the day, as I grew up about 30 minutes from the city. However, times have changed and the city , with the exception of the inner harbour maybe, is considered extremely dangerous and crime infested. To further edify you, when I refer to the D.C. neighbourhoods, I’m not talking about the government district. That area is swarming with what appears to be thousands of capitol police officers which means if I were to choose to bike there, I’d probably be safe. I wouldn’t… Read more »
Don’t think you can just pretend your poor behavior never happened. How about an apology to the whole website? Then you can join the adults here as a full member in good standing.
Barely anyone else has even commented for a week now, all because of you. Don’t you think an apology to them would be appropriate? You can leave me out of it. I don’t need one and won’t believe you have more than temporarily changed until enough time has passed anyway.
Why couldn’t you have written like this days or weeks ago?
What took so long?
Do you even know how to read? Maybe you’d best be checked out for dementia.
The guy who doesn’t read anything is asking if someone else knows how to read? Irony, meet Idiot.
Are you having fun yet?
professor, edify: to instruct and improve : uplift, enlighten, inform. Are you an ‘arm chair’ professor also?
Craig, I was only in the inner harbor area in Baltimore in 2003 at the convention center for a 5-day coin show and convention & at my friend’s office at T. Rowe Price company across the street from the convention center where she is an expert multi-lingual (English, German & Scandinavian languages) licensed investment advisor. Great seafood restaurant on the edge of the harbor which had fantastic Maryland crab cakes of course – it’s name started with “McCormick,” but I didn’t catch the full name. There was a nice gay-friendly bar right nextdoor to the entrance to the T. Rowe… Read more »
Where is all the freaking love?
Two way street. Understand finally?
Craig,
Don’t forget about the assault weapons ban passed by the USA Congress & signed into law for a 10-year period by President William Jefferson Clinton that resulted in record-low assault weapons murders/deaths in the USA. The Republicans in Washington, D.C. haven’t allowed that great public safety law to be extended, and the mass shootings by the assault weapons murders/deaths continue almost daily… Sad!
By the way, there is a pistol-shaped legal tender silver coin available now for your collection/gun cabinet.

Hi Seth,As a Libertarian (you really are an Idiot, KKKraig. Well, you got the first five letters right), I diverge from you on this one. Our semi-auto’s are not “assault weapons” (full-auto capable are) so I am not for a ban, but I do believe they should not be freely available either. I can easily say someone who enjoys torturing animals as a child into their teen years should probably not be allowed to own any gun and most people have no reason to have rifle caliber semi-auto carbines with huge clips either. We license and heavily restrict full-auto machinegun… Read more »
Seth, I know about the laws and I follow the law, especially when concerned about firearms. I have been vetted by the state and have a CC permit issued by the sheriffs department. I’ll bet that is abhorrent to you girls, am I right? Do you honestly believe there aren’t individuals with fully automatic weapons in their possession? if you do then you’re more disillusioned than even I thought. There are hard core individuals out there who simply don’t care about laws. By the way, could you give us a course on how ‘mass shootings by assault weapons’. occurs. I… Read more »
“I’ll bet that is abhorrent to you girls, am I right?“–Are you kidding me?
Well, the inner adult in you didn’t step outside for very long, did he, KKKraig? 23 minutes before the rotten kid took control again.
Back to the playground.
Pleas stop with your snarky ‘cutting’ comments. But it does edify me as to your true nature, your highness! Lol
If only you could edify yourself about your own nature.
Are you having fun yet?
You idiots really are giving me a laugh! Now who’s the crude ones. Lol!
What is the matter, not enjoying being on the side KKKraig? Does it feel good?
Are you having fun yet?
What does ‘not enjoying being on the side’ mean? Do I have to give you another sniff, Jeffee? Lol
How about that review of your Christmas Quarter Ornaments?
Do we have order yet, Jeffee?
Thank you for pointing that out, Craig. Here is the revised sentence: “What is the matter, not enjoying being on the other side KKKraig?”
See how that works?
Craig, Wait a damned minute! Lol. The President of the USA has to be born in the USA (or a USA “property” like one of our approximately 400 military bases overseas or a USA Embassy overseas or a USA Consulate overseas or born on an official USA-flagged ship, submarine, airplane etc., or born in our Federal City Capital, Washington, D.C., or born in one of our 5 USA sovereign territories, or on one of our sovereign Native American Indian Federal reservations. No foreign-born person’s can ever be USA President under the original version of the USA Constitution as it stands… Read more »
Thanks Seth. I didn’t even bother this time. I just skipped this step. We already covered SpaceX/illegal aliens and immigrants on other threads, but I am sure he didn’t read them. Another Troll that knows nothing, but thinks he knows everything.
Oh how the high and mighty (at least in their limited minds) come down and waddle in the mud. Does anyone else laugh at this poor morons choice for a ‘call name’? Tells me everything I need to know about this fool. Lol
You would know all about limited minds now, wouldn’t you, KKKraig.
I don’t have any problem with ‘legal immigrants’ who go through our immigration process and become lawful citizens, but I don’t use the term ‘American citizens’ anymore because who defines what that is. We now have a black Supreme Court justice that can’t define ‘female’, but we’re to listen to a queer on what a ‘citizen’ is? I don’t think so. And you ‘pearls of wisdom’ see no hypocrisy in this administration going after Musk for not hiring illegal aliens to work on rockets, yet when they are forbidden from applying for the position of advisor on a coin advisory… Read more »
Liar.

Craig,
Elon Musk is an immigrant from South Africa & then England & then Canada & now here in the USA!! Lmfao. Thank G-D he is here in the USA now with all his money & paying his personal & business income taxes for us all (except his businesses here in Texas where I live, since we do not have any state, county or city income tax for individuals or businesses & never have had in the State of Texas history. Thanks to G-D! Amen!
NumisdudeTX
Yep, mentioned that part too.
Seth, you really are an amateur journalist which is probably why you write about coins right? If you would dig a little deeper, you’d learn and know that Elon Musk also became a U.S. Citizen through legal channels. I’m not only glad he’s here in the U.S, I’m thrilled, as his company’s stock (Tesla for the I.Q. challenged) has made me literally a ton of profits. Edify the poor.
And you KKKraig, are an amateur Human. Good thing you are only a 5th grader, you still have lots of time to grow up.
Are you having fun yet?
I think you need another sniff, Jeffee. But no licking, good boy.
Do we have order yet, Jeffee?
Do you have a brain yet?
Craig, I am the one who posted here that Elon Musk got a USA “Golden Visa” to get here legally. And I said I’m glad he’s here in Texas because he pays property taxes & our 8% sales tax. You obviously are no professional writer or journalist like me Craig. I worked for the largest publication of its kind in the world as a full-time, credentialed journalist (having won a national journalism internship beating out more than 300 applicants just 4 months from my university graduation after 6 years at UT) & as a literary guild member by invitation only… Read more »
Craig, I made a killing buying PCGS company stock as soon as they went public/Collector’s Universe (NASDAQ: CLCT) & kept buying more shares each month till a private investment company bought them & took the company private. Look up the articles about how much they offered for us to tender our shares! I also tripled my investment in six months, buying the IPO stock of the first smokeless cigarette company, since I worked at UT with the Ph.D. Chemistry professor who invented them. My uncle had a BA, MBA & Ph.D. in Business & was a professor at Arkansas State… Read more »
You should be a comedy tour, your highness. Nice sentence structure moron.
You unfortunately, have no future in comedy.
Are you having fun yet?
Hi Kaiser Wilhelm,
I should apologize to you as well. I should have asked you why you were not doing the 1:1 ratio I aim for. Sorry for not saying something.
Just in case Craig wishes to still play the ass, I want you to know this apology alone is more than Craig has been capable of doing so far. Do not let his words affect you if they are negative.
Craig,
If you wish to remain on the playground, I will still play.
Kaiser,
Greetings, and I hope you are feeling better in all ways for sure. Hopefully your devoted wife & also your coin collection give you some solace during a tough time. My numismatic collection helps me deal with life’s problems & challenges, and I feel we are blessed with that too.
Best wishes to you Kaiser, and let’s get back to some fun coin talk.
Best regards,
