It is interesting what can be achieved on the Web if you find something that interests people. My online buddy, Rob Shinnick, is an avid coin collector and metal detectorist. He is the person who got me interested in holed coins. He lives near the coast of Georgia and goes by the name LordMarcovan online. He is far from what anyone would call rich. Someone got it in his head that Rob should go to Europe, maybe just England I'm not sure, and explore a bit. So they started a fund raiser, details at:
