thanks. i always give an extra look at the 71s, wishful thinking i suppose.

 

Thats the problem with wishful thinking.

You have biased yourself into wanting to will it into what its not. You'll see ppl state once you learn the minting process it will help you identify real errors or at least dismiss all the junk.

 

by the thread title i don't think i biased myself to that point but you are correct, i started reading the post but when i got to the part with guys with mallets i thought to myself i need to watch the video instead...
