Hello, Sorry that I missed chat Wed. I expect to be there tonight. Thanks to several of you who sent comments on the condition piece. I will still be happy for more comments and to discuss it at chat. Joe Boling sent the following related item which may make it into the book. I use a somewhat different rarity system with my collection: R-1 Something in my collection R-2 Something that was once in my collection but that I traded for something better. R-3 Something that was once in my collection that I traded and then wished I hadn't R-4 Something I bid on in a major auction, but didn't have any hope of buying R-5 Something I once held in my hand and hoped I wouldn't drop R-6 Something I saw a museum photo of R-7 "Unique" - All the coins not in my collection. Roger Burdett Hope to see you tonight on line.
