As promised, the slabfree chapter is pleased to report that our membership is up to 205 as of the mail this afternoon. The quote from the newest member pretty much somes up the what a lot of us feel...

"As a young boy I started to collect coins and really enjoyed the hobby. However, over the years the "slabbers" and "investors" took over coin collection and I eventually gave up my collection. In casino chips, I have rediscovered the fun of collecting. I applaud your (the slabfree chapter) efforts to keep the hobby "slab free"."
