<p>[QUOTE="Prez2, post: 3169262, member: 93969"]I did re-read your included post and I understand your premise but I think 'clown' is a bit strong. I've watched many of his videos and though I already know many of what he presents I still find his videos interesting and while I sort of agree that he that he tends to 'overdo it' a bit here and there, I think his videos intentionally mislead anyone. One thing I find fascinating in his videos is his whole presentation of modern coins selling for such high price tags. I get that coin A grades higher than coin B and so it's 'worth' more than the other but it amazes me that these relatively potentially available coins do fetch such a price. You're correct when you represent that he is more of an entertainer than a 'purist' collector and presents his information in that way. So the entertainment point you raise I can find agreement with because I do kind of look at his videos for entertainment MOST of the time. I think he's good for the hobby and I wouldn't call him a clown but we're all certainly entitled to our opinions. I can also agree that the seasoned collector (whatever constitutes that these days) wouldn't find his presentations all that informative for those kinds of collectors. I can't honestly say he 'misleads' anyone though. I guess I can appreciate him in that I have pulled so many coins from circulation myself that are of reasonable value versus face value and are a part of my collection. So I see where you're coming from but 'misleading' or 'clown' wouldn't be accurate IMHO. No offense though and as I said prior, we're all entitled to our opinions. Thanks for the elaboration. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
