One reason people come on to forums like this is to get educated about their hobby. to just say &quot;sorry, that&#039;s post mint damage&quot; does nothing to educate anyone. If you label something post mint damage, or anything else for that matter, you should explain WHY you feel it is that way or you are just asking someone to take your word for it. For many years the hobby was run just that way. There were even books published that listed errors as die varieties, identifying such items as the die chip that created the &quot;BIE&quot; error and cataloging cuds as varieties. This created a false market for these items and, though they have value, they were sold for more than they would bring today as a properly identified error.</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;Ignorance is bliss&quot; may be a great way to watch a neighborhood ball game, but it is not appropriate in a hobby where people often spend large ammounts of cash.</p><p><br /></p><p>Richard[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
