My Compliments
Hi Everyone,
I'm sortof new here, but I mostly read. I am also a coin collector so I subscribe to rcc as well as this ng. I have to say that I find this ng much more friendly and a lot less "pseudo-academic" than a lot of folks in rcc. Not sure what makes folks that collect coins act the way they do sometimes. Its a puzzle to me. Anyway, just wanted to complement you guys on how helpful and non-condescending you are. B |

Dave ;-) Blair, Tracy et all, what about some SNA fennec coins for this promising market niche? I wonder which could be the "print runs" for them (made of xx carats gold, of course; xx = ??). -- Victor Manta ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spanish North Africa: http://www.values.ch/sna-site/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

Dave ;-) Without a doubt. Fennecs are KEWL and that's that. In fact, the pronunciation is close to pfennig. Unfortunately, though, fennecs - at least the FDC - do not like carrying SNA currency because of the weight. They let the camels do that. Fennecs rely on their SNA debit and credit cards more. Fennecs have been known to bury some SNA booty though and some dens will have coin collections therein, but mostly they prefer paper. But that is another matter for another newsgroup. |

As long as the Dromedrome can house such a cache and the camels carry it. I have heard the fennecs will strike if they have to move such heavy objects and the FDC Union is quite a powerful entity in SNA circles. On the other hand, she wore a glove... Commemorative coins would be quite cool, but we'd have to carry the discussion to the numismatic newsgroups. Maybe the special "sauce" we use for stamp gum can be used for SNA currency as well! |

OK! Contestants! Choose your corners and prepare only with spade tongs. You will then be set loose into the middle of the (boxing) ring with a pile of stamps. The first one to finish cleaning up all the damaged stamps in their respective pile is the winner! Remember, 1 stamp at a time... 1 stamp at a time... |
