[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 3565437, member: 26302"]I could see that, identifying a coin "in the wild" makes it more personally liked than something you buy already identified. I have the same feeling when I rescue coins either misidentified or erroneously thrown into group lots as common pieces when in reality it is a special coin. It is one of my tricks at auctions to study group lots very carefully. If I can find two coins that are special and worth the entire lot price its more of a "win" than simply buying that coin at normal retail price. The chase makes it more personal and satisfying. If we ever met Paul I should have you go through my nickel rolls I bought 25 years ago from an old time collection. 4 BU rolls of 38 D and S, and 39 D and S. I have no idea if anything good is there, never having opened them. :)[/QUOTE]
