[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 2093196, member: 19250"]You need not be a dealer to cherry pick. Just need to have an interest in variety collecting . I can't explain the joy of finding a coin that the dealer has marked $40 that's worth many times the asking price. Except when you counter offer $10 less and he says yes! Most of us old timers have our own game plan working a show. I walk the show scout out my wants and needs.... then if there's nothing that sparks interest I go to plan B. Plan B is in place while walking the show the first go round. If I have spotted a coin that is a known variety I give it the once over. And yes... there is a lot to remember varieties as well as values. But it pays off!!!! The last 5 shows I have cherry picked 5 coins cost under $170. Worth over $1000. WTG Matt nice pick! BTW it's not illegal to carry a Cherry picker ' s to a show with you. :)[/QUOTE]
