Remember when I was made fun of here on CT relaying the whole story about "the Sheik" and his affect on the market? Man, I heard from Kerry Wetterstrom directly. I never understood that.
He, along with a couple of major collectors in my coin club, simply were discussing the effect of the sheik's purchases on the upper end Greek market a few years back, along with the Swiss gentleman that used to be the largest purchaser of high grade Greek. When I talked about the subject here, I kind of got ridiculed about the idea "the sheik", (as many in the hobby was simply calling him).
He bought several gold and ottoman coins from me this year under the ID faisal.qatar paid right away.
