<p>[QUOTE="Cascade, post: 2413642, member: 75984"]Bill, I too a few years ago, when I was very new, thought I had a Zerbe or Chapman proof that turned out to be highly polished. I know <i>exactly</i> how you feel in this situation, <i>literally</i>. It was before I found coin forums and I sent it to pcgs and sure enough it came back details. I learned the hard way on that but at that time I was using pcgs to learn how to grade as like I said I hadn't found these forums yet. Let's just say I paid a pretty price for a very limited education during those days. Once I found the forums I was set on the right path and gained enough actual, true knowledge to build upon. I stopped 95% of my buying for about 6 months until I felt I had the basics down. Now, I have a collection of morgans (and others) that some would drool over and I can cherrypick vams with the best of them (well maybe not the best, those guys have gnarly vam knowledge) anyway I suggest you hold off buying for a few months at least and participate in forums as much as possible with an open mind ready to learn. It will pay off big leauge![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
