<p>[QUOTE="Darchangel, post: 1541071, member: 37158"]I've been following this thread since the beginning. Now I feel ok to put a little something out to the OP. I'm a 6 month newbie here on CT and also was a little confused at some of the responses to my original posts. It didn't take me long to realize that mostly everyone on here genuinely WANTS to help. Whether you are a casual hunter, just got a collection passed on to you, or are a serious collector - the seasoned members have been there, done that, and read a whole lot about it. I've had a few incredibly lucky finds myself. I asked questions here and then took my coins to a few different dealers, the dreaded road show (which really tried to lowball me), and a friend with a good digital scale. After sharing my results back here with the forum, I felt very confident in choosing a grading company to send to and have my stuff authenticated. It was truly an awesome, valuable and educational experience that I will never forget! I hope to be able to do it again and maybe try a different company.</p><p><br /></p><p>My point really is that I don't think anyone is purposefully trying to be mean to you or question you in a hurtful way. They are questioning THE COIN. I think we're all pulling for you and WANT it to be the real thing. I'm sure everyone will gather around to congratulate you on a fantastic find if it works out that way! You might even find a buyer if that's what you're looking to do. Whatever the path is that you may continue on with coins, I hope that you will still consider CT for questions or help you may need. :thumb:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
