Take a bow, Humpybong?
September 06, 2008, 12:40:16 PM
I was reading through one of my coin magazines, Worldwide Coins, and I about fell over when I saw a familiar name and face staring at me from an inset photograph. Mr. Barry Murray. 

Is this really our very own humpybong, in the international spotlight? 

Do add this coin to my collection?

It is the September 2008  issue, Volume 2 issue 5.  The particular article is "Go Global!  Internet connects World Collectors." 

Do add this coin to my collection?

Wow. Thats not one of the magazines I subscribe to. But Barry is certainly worthy of mention in it.

That must be Barry--I think he lives in that specific area if I'm not mistaken.
I'm guessing he knew about this article and he's just being cool about it (?)  ;D
Congrats Barry on the distinction.  :)
