<p>[QUOTE=&quot;non_cents, post: 1826245, member: 30970&quot;]Woah woah woah...not sure how my question in any way provoked that sort of a response.</p><p>You say you don&#039;t do childish things...</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Ever heard of an opinion or an educated guess? I am free to post whatever I wish, whether it be opinion or fact.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t ALWAYS have an answer for everything, but when I feel I can give an educated guess, I do. And just because YOU think I am wrong doesn&#039;t actually make me wrong...I suppose that all the members that have agreed with my statements in the past are also wrong, and you are the only one that&#039;s correct here?</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;Funny enough, in the previous sentence you claim that you don&#039;t bash, brag or boast, yet the last few sentences are exactly that...claiming you have a better collection and calling me out for not posting my finds. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Well, first of all, what does having a lot of recent finds have anything to do with one&#039;s knowledge? I have studied die varieties and numismatics extensively for the past 3 years, have nationally-recognized authors and die attributors as personal friends, and moderate a forum that deals almost exclusively in die varieties and errors.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;d post find for find with you, though frankly I have sold off most of my doubled dies and am now more into the education side of the hobby than the searching side. But between over 50 cherrypicker varieties, tubes full of repunched mintmarks, hundreds of moderate and minor doubled dies a few discovery pieces listed on coppercoins.com, and many educational threads on this forum, you may want to recheck your facts about me.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have in no way attacked your character, called you any names, or have insulted you. All I have done in your threads is give opinions (and sometimes facts). </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>On the other hand, a paragraph full of bashing members, saying that 99% of the time they are wrong, telling them to keep their mouths shut, claiming that we don&#039;t have our own opinions, then saying something silly like &quot;I bet my collection is better than yours&quot; tells me exactly who YOU are, Tommy. </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ll take it that you&#039;re not going to let us know what the results of the submission were, which is a shame because I really did want to know. But judging from the tone of your latest post, I think most members are smart enough to know what the results were.</p><p><br /></p><p>I wish you the best of luck in your searching. Honestly, I do. But don&#039;t take offense to posts that are only other people&#039;s opinions on your coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
