Although not the official Welcome Wagon of RCC, welcome anyway!! Sounds
to me like you have a good plan by reading more about the subject at hand. I'm sure many here will tell you to do just that. Also, feel free to ask questions of the group. There are many experts here and they share information freely. Thanks for de-lurking. Steve |

"Queen of Squishies" wrote in message
link.net Just want to introduce myself, cuz lurking without speaking seems.......well - rude! I want to read for awhile and begin to learn what I can about coins. I just inherited some old coins from my Mother, very recently deceased. I want to learn so I can eventually sell them, so everybody - keep talking! Thanks, Karen, making cents in IL Another young lady, good. Company for Chrysta, Doris, Anka, et al. Welcome. I hope you will be active in the group and learn a lot. I trust you will be less controversial than the last young lady to appear here. :-) As a group, we tend to be friendly and helpful. Don't hesitate to ask specific coin related questions. BTW, wonder how close you are to Stujoe or one of the other regulars here from IL? -- Ed Hendricks ANA# R178621 eBay: edh. |

Welcome. I lurked for a while when I first found this group. It's a good way
to get your feet wet. OK I'll ask --- what does Queen of Squishies mean? Anything to do with elongated coins? Art "Queen of Squishies" wrote in message link.net...

Thanks for the unofficial but warm welcome! I'm glad you think this is a
good plan. I don't know the first thing about coins, so reading seemed the right thing. Any informational web sites? Karen, making cents in IL |

Thank you for your condolences. I'm sure I'll be asking some questions
later on. Right now I don't even know enough to know what to ask! Ha! Karen, making cents in IL |

I will try not to be any more controversial than my usual cantankerous self
and not so humble opinions demand. (grin) Don't know how close I am to Stujoe. I live in the cornfields of Cental Illinois. Karen, making cents in IL |

From: "Queen of Squishies"
Any informational web sites? Welcome! You can start he http://www.telesphere.com/index.html Chuck hosts the FAQ for the group, and has a lot of other good information besides. If you have anything British, you'll want to check Tony Clayton's website: http://www.tclayton.demon.co.uk/ There's the US Mint's site: http://www.usmint.gov/index.cfm?flash=no And the Bureau of Engraving and Printing if you have any paper money: http://www.usmint.gov/index.cfm?flash=no The American Numismatic Association has published a list of well-know replica paper money: http://www.money.org/replicas.html Byron Reed as a very informative page on early US coins: http://www.byronreed.com/BCTC/ Once you figure out what you have, we can give you even more web sites specific to your coins and questions. Have fun, hope this helps. -- mark |

Thanks, Karen, making cents in IL This could be a good lead-in to a guessing game-I'll go out on a limb and say it comes from the Simpsons-Apu sells sqishies in his quik-e-mart. Welcome to RCC- phil (Apu to customers in the episode about the hurricane,with Indian accent- (You will all have the opportunity to be gouged!) Or was it Robert Chambers? |
