Hello Eric,
Congragulations on your recent achievement and thank you for sharing
the letter you recieved from Peter. I can fully understand the
decisions of management and how often they do not represent the views
of personel. What annoy's me is the comment that no one at JGM new
what it was at the beginning and at the end. Could someone explain
to me where in the world they came up out of thin air with "1771
counterfeit" in the posted description. In my opinion the pursuit of
the almighty greenback took center stage and JGM Numismatics
sacrificed truth and integrity for what has become an accepted way of
doing business!
I purchased a coin from Peter a few month's back and as he mentioned
I might miss out on a few choice items they may offer in the future
but I will not compromise my convictions. JGM Numismatics lost my
future business simply because they earned it!
