I am late getting started on our 2005 award....

Please submit your nomination before 24 December. Only one nomination or one second per person. All members nominated and seconded will be included in the poll which will begin on DEC 25th and end January 3rd.

As I am unable to nominate more than one person, I have chosen to nominate Jochen. He has been a great asset to the discussion board at large and furthermore has been of much help to individual members both publicly in his posts and privately in his PM's.

A very difficult question since there are a lot of great people on FORVM, but if I have to make a choice, I'd like to nominate slokind/Patricia. She is always friendly and helpful, no matter how inexperienced people are and her knowledge is just immens. For a young collector like me (and I'm sure for many others as well), the possibility to converse with here is a real honour. Too, I'd like to nominate Curtis - I'm sure I don't have to explain his nomination anymore.

Your right this is difficult because we do have a lot of great members. I would like to nominate Kevin ( PEP) for the incredible work he does for the awards, he is with out a doubt one of the hardest workers on the board, he really makes a difference.

I would find this really difficult. Both Pat and Curtis are experts in the fields I am interested in (as well as others) and both have been more than helpful - through PM's & other correspondence. Jochen and Pscipio are always quick of the mark in attribution help, to new and experienced alike (note how I didn't say old

. There are unsung heros like *Alex, J. Victoria, Lawrence Woolslayer and others who have been slaving away on the Numiswiki project - behind the scenes, so to speak. There are , of course, many others who I have noticed giving excellent contributions, but the above are the ones, that have caught my eye.

I think I'll pick *Alex, for the reason that alot of effort has probably gone nu-noticed by the "masses" (Bread & games etc.) Hopefully someone will pick the others I've named

All the best

I think after Curtis Clay, award winner of the last year, it is Patricia Lawrence who deserves this award most. It is always a pleasure to read her profound comments which add a new dimension to our hobby often going vast beyond the coin on its own.

Best regards

Don't forget Steve Minnoch! He has more breadth than I have and has helped me repeatedly. I also agree with all the other nominations.
Pat L.

Joe Sermarini · « **Reply #8 on:** December 21, 2005, 01:57:29 pm »

Jochen
Curtis Clay
slokind (Patricia Lawrence)
Barry Murphy
Pep (Kevin)
*Alex
Steve Minnoch

These members appear to have been nominated but need seconds (takes two members to nominate one).

whitetd49 · « **Reply #9 on:** December 21, 2005, 02:08:35 pm »

They are all deserving. To make it official, I'll second the nomination of slokind.

I second Steve's nomination!

I'll second Jochen.
I know I'll have a difficult time once it's time for the actual vote, though,
there are several members that deserve this honour.

curtislclay · « **Reply #14 on:** December 21, 2005, 03:44:18 pm »

I nominate tacrolimus.
Without him and Steve Minnoch, a lot of the submitted Greek and Roman provincial coins would never be identified.

CAMPAIGN SPEACH............

Vote for me and I promise:

1. Lower taxes
2. Better coins for less money
3. Free Coins from Forum

Since I probably can't follow-up on any of my campaign promises (this is normal for politicians), I guess I'll vote for Pat L.

Barry Murphy

I nominate Lawrence Woolslayer for the oustanding work he has brought to sorting the Greek coinage on the Fakes board amongst other areas where he contributes to the boards.

Steve Minnoch · « **Reply #17 on:** December 21, 2005, 06:07:27 pm »

I am more than happy to second Curtis' nomination of Luigi (tacrolimus).

Just look at your Magistratus Optima Lege misreading the instructions, "one nomination OR one second per person"

Is someone else willing to second Robert a second time to make it official

Since I nominated Jochen, would someone else like to second Barry Murphy?
