I am just going to jump right into your conversation, because my other "C" passion is cars.
All cars mentioned are beautifully designed, including the hornet (IMO). But sporty is my preference, so besides classic american muscle (My#1), I love the 1956-57 Chevy Corvette, just look at the beauty!!!!

SOLD today for $5.00! So that means I now have $5 to parlay toward my goal of obtaining a 1917 St. Gaudens Double Eagle for a dollar! Can't wait to see what's next!

Hello all,

Precious find. I would have gladly offered you $7 for that V Nickel. Sold now oh well. Hope that doesn’t violate any rules?

BTW
I’ve viewed all of the info on how to post, can you kindly unlock my account? Much appreciated

Having a bad day? I hope not. COinDak never could never have posted what you replied to if his ACCOUNT was locked. Please don't jump to conclusions and stir the pot without checking an issue. 😊

From the other posts, I believe you are a bit new to using forums? Or maybe just this one?

Having an "account locked" means you will not be able to post anything anywhere on the forum...but you obviously posted this, so you account is not locked.

And...I went though the forum with your level of permissions using your account and had no problems.

So I am guessing you are referring to a thread of yours that was locked?

If a member has a thread locked - this means only THAT THREAD was locked so nothing more can be added to THAT THREAD only.

Threads that were locked from someone not knowing or following the rules are never unlocked. Instead the member simply makes a new thread of the same subject following forum guidelines on how to make a proper post.😊

No problem at all. We all have trouble figuring out forums at first. Each one has its own way of working but the basic rules and lingo seems universal.

this reminds me of how I got my first Draped Bust Cent- 20c in a foreign bin
its a cull that is either dateless or so close to being dateless that it is effectively dateless, but it is still something I am glad to have found
