  Excuse me Mr. Strope. I am not "spamming the list" I am a member of =
this list and thought it would be an interesting offer to some, not all, =
to trade METEORITES for rare coins.

  Your post "Quit spamming the list with this crap." is inappropriate =
and uncalled for. A respondent to my offer was Richard Norton. So there.

    Warmest regards, Michael Casper

      WILL TRADE RARE COINS FOR YOUR METEORITES!!!

      That's right! Michael Casper will trade his rare coins for your =
meteorites!
      Now is the time to trade those silly rocks from space for rare =
coins. Over the years, rare U.S. coins have proven to be one of the most =
profitable of all investment vehicles. For long term price appreciation, =
relatively few investments have compared to the gains made by high =
quality gold and silver rare coins. When purchased through a =
knowledgeable and reputable dealer, rare coins can provide an =
intelligent and profitable diversification to your overall portfolio.=20
      The fact is, rare coin investments are no longer going unnoticed =
by the investment community. Today, they represent an increasing share =
of many corporate pension and profit sharing plans and frequently =
recommended by leading financial planners. Although past history is no =
guarantee of future performance, it seems safe to surmise that quality =
rare coins will continue to provide a viable diversification to one's =
overall portfolio.=20

      Rare coins also enjoy many advantages over other investments. =
Their traditionally high rate of appreciation is certainly the most =
compelling, but there are many others, including:

        a.. Safety
        Prior to 1985, the price of a rare coin was determined by =
dealers using their own subjective opinions on the condition (or grade) =
of the item in question. Since the difference between single points on =
the grading scale often means huge price differentials, these often =
biased "grading opinions" obviously led to numerous conflicts of =
interest and abuses by certain dealers in our industry. However, in =
1985, several of our nation's leading rare coin specialists formed an =
independent certification company that would finally set a standard for =
grading & authentication. The formation of the Professional Coin Grading =
Service (PCGS) revolutionized our industry, making it safer for the =
novice collector/investor to acquire coins with the peace of mind that =
his or her coins were properly graded. In 1987, the inception of the =
Numismatic Guarantee Corporation (NGC) provided a competitor to PCGS. =
Although there are other grading companies, none deliver the widespread =
acceptance or consistency of NGC or PCGS. Asan added benefit of =
certification, the coins are encapsulated in sonically sealed, =
tamper-evident holders which provide safe, long-term storage.=20

        a.. Liquidity
        Unlike other tangible assets such as jewelry, stamps or artwork, =
the rare coin market enjoys a very active trading environment with up to =
the minute 'bid' and 'ask' prices available for investors. Dealers, =
collectors and investors actively compete for high-quality rarities. =
Technology, satellites and specially designed computer systems now allow =
coins to be traded in much the same way that individual stocks are =
traded on Wall Street. Even during our market's 'slow times', coins =
remain liquid because the foundation is still based on collectors - who =
in turn sustain demand.
      Please visit our new web site www.caspercoin.com and email, fax or =
call with your offers.
