QDB no longer appears on the "Insider and From 144 Holders" roster.
Dunno if this is because he has fully liquidated his holdings, or
simply is no longer required to be reported on this form.

[Bonus question: What is David Hall's legal first name?]

And of course, it's still down 33% over 5 years and 50% from its alltime
high...

Currey.

As of Dec 2003 he owned 1,706,100 of Collector's Universe stock. At todays
price that would amount to $36,850,053.90. That's a lotta coins.

Depends on which ones you're buying. A 1933 $20, 1913 Liberty 5c, 1804
$1 -- well, that's about half the cash already.

Yeah, but imagine owning those three coins....and you're STILL a cash
multi-millionaire?

My guess: His first name is Victor. But since that would make his initials
VDB which is already taken by the designer of the Lincoln cent, he changed
his first initial to Q which doesn't stand for anything. Or maybe it does.

Quentin

Really? I was hoping for Quincy.

Like most wizards, he sold all his stock before it took off. Which is OK,
since he doesn't collect coins anyway. He makes money from them. If he
somehow acquired some rarities, his biggest thrill would be to hold an auction.

Regards,
Tom
